[Foss4g2009] Errata - Presentation Bios

[mapbutcher]

I'll make the change today - however iI've limited time to react to these
requests on an ad-hoc basis so opening a window might be useful.
Apologies  - with Shoaib off shore and mental life at the moment I've been
allowing updates to mount up till i get some free time.
