[Foss4g2010] Workshops

[Jeff McKenna]

Hello Oscar,

I sent the workshop call reminder to the 'conference-workshops' email 
list, which contains about 70 previous workshop/tutorial presenters.  I 
think you should introduce yourself on that list, and encourage them to 
ask questions there.

I also entered my name on the workshop committee wiki page, and I am 
looking forward to working with you on the subcommittee :)
