[Foss4g2009] Workshops and tutorials

[Mark Leslie]

I expect we'll be doing a pick 10, as we have ten slots, but yes, this 
is much better.  I do want to give some criteria so that we're all 
working to something resembling the same vision, and it's easier to 
establish this up front, but after toying with the rating game earlier 
I'm not convinced it will give us what we want.
