[FOSS4G2016] Accept/reject talk emails

[Volker Mische]

Hi LOC,

I currently draft the email to accept/rejecting the talks. I use the
email from 2014 as template.

There is a section about attending:

1) If you are UNABLE to attend, please let the committee know as
soon as possible, but not later than July 15th, by sending an e-mail
to program at foss4g2016.org. If you are able to attend, then there
is no need to let us know.

If you haven't registered for the conference by July 15th, expect
an e-mail from us asking you about your plans. Remember, the early
bird discount ends on June 15th, so just go ahead and register now.

Unfortunately, we are not able to offer any additional discount to
presenters. However, we do have a travel grant program. Applications
for that are due on May 30th. For more information, please see:
https://2014.foss4g.org/attending/discounts-and-grants/.


That makes a lot of sense, my questions are:

 - Until which date should they register? What about 2016-07-01?
 - Looking at this year's Early Bird registration ends 2016-05-08. Isn't
that a bit tight for people getting the emails on Thu/Fri? I'm thinking
about governmental institutions here
 - Is the preferred link to the travel grant program
http://2016.foss4g.org/attending.html#travel-grants ?
 - What is the travel program due date?

Cheers,
  Volker
