[Foss4g2009] AGM timing, again

[Cameron Shorter]

I think it wise to keep 2 BOF sessions, at least for the international 
participants, who will likely want to attend two different BOF sessions.

I also think that many of the locals will be at the conference to check 
out the software and won't be as interested in the internal workings of 
OSGeo.

So I'd be inclined to put the AGM on Friday evening. (International 
people will still likely be in town, locals will be heading home).

However, I'd can be convinced to have the second BOF on Friday if others 
push for it.

Tyler, Simon, your call.
