[FOSS4G2016] Update 11.05.2015

[Jeff McKenna]

Hi Till,

Regarding the website URL and redirection, you'll need to create a 
ticket in the OSGeo trac (use the component "Systems Admin").  An 
example ticket is the one I used for the Seoul team: 
https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/1423

My best advice is to have your tech person file the ticket 
herself/himself, as you can see that from that previous ticket that the 
OSGeo Systems team likes to deal directly with your tech person.  (I 
believe on our/OSGeo side we need to change a DNS "A Record" to point 
http://2016.foss4g.org/ to your server IP).

When you do file the ticket, please post the ticket link here in this 
thread so I can follow along and maybe poke/nudge the right person to 
get it done :)
