[Foss4g2009] Need volunteers for coordinator roles

[Cameron Shorter]

Thanks everyone for volunteering.

Can you please add your names to the appropriate wiki page under a 
Coordinators heading.

Then you can go through the wiki, update as appropriate.
By Wednesday (in 2 days), I want each wiki to be clear about how a 
person can get involved in the activity. (It may just be to add their 
project and name to the wiki).

We will then send out a press release and point people at the wiki pages.
