[FOSS4G2016] Re-Cap for Call for Submissions

[till.adams at fossgis.de]

Hi Franz-Joosef, @all,

from my point we can't give a prolongation, because this will affect 
our complete time plannings. When we open registration (15.4.) we 
definitely need the workshop program and in order to make early bird 
more attractive, we need a program at least end of April (early bird 
closes 8th of may).

So we should do many efforts to attract call for submissions and also 
rely on the fact, that people from our community wait until the last 5 
minutes to hand in their stuff.

Till
