[Ica-osgeo-labs] Meeting at FOSS4G-Como

Hi everyone,

I am not sure what is going on.  I'll summarize the confusion here:

- each year at FOSS4G, a BOF wiki page is set up (one page so all 
attendees can goto one page and see all of the BOFs at the event)
- i took the time to ask Maria for all of the available rooms for BOFs, 
which she replied, and then I created a BOF page for the FOSS4G-Como event
- I added a GeoForAll BOF at 
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G_Europe_2015_BirdsOfAFeather#GeoForAll_BOF
- now this morning I learn there is a separate wiki :(

Anyway, maybe you can edit the wiki and remove my meeting time, and 
point to your new wiki page, but make sure that people heading to the 
main BOF page can find all of your GeoForAll meetings.  That is the key 
point.

The point again (sorry to summarize): 1 wiki page listing all BOF rooms 
available, and listing all BOF meetings (that wiki page can definitely 
point to other wikis, in the GeoForAll case)

Ha, I didn't see the confusion coming this time, sorry.

-jeff
