[Foss4g2009] Confirmation that Tour Hosts have been selected to host FOSS4G2009

[Cameron Shorter]

Rachel,
As discussed on the phone.

I'd like to inform you that the OSGeo selection committee have selected 
Tour Hosts to act as a Professional Conference Organisor for the FOSS4G 
conference in Sydney in 2009.

I announce this in the capacity of FOSS4G2009 Local Organising Committee 
chairperson, (a voluntary role with no legal binding).

Congratulations on putting together such a strong proposal, and I look 
forward to working with you further.

I understand that our next steps will be to have a kick off 
meeting/teleconference between the organising committee and Tour Hosts.

I suggest this timeslot:
