I don't recall any discussion about a poster, but we will
eventually need one anyhow, so I'm not opposed to it.

It has been pointed out before that the amount of room
taken up by the website footer is far too big, and that
is my first impression of the poster as well.

I agree with Cameron about the poster - just the URL
(http://2009.foss4g.org/) - but also get rid of the entire
bottom block with the TH info, and either replace it with
"some info" about the conference, and/or make the FOSS4G
and OSGeo logos much bigger. The poster is to advertise
the conference, not who is managing the conference. People
can always get in touch via the info on the website.
