[Marketing] Marketing meeting

I'm interested in marketing on two levels:
1. I'm on the FOSS4G 2009 committee and will need a marketing plan.

2. LISAsoft derives a large part of our business from supporting 
Geospatial Standards and the OSGeo stack. So our marketing has a lot of 
synergies with OSGeo and I can put a strong case to our management that 
it beneficial to work with OSGeo on Marketing.

So I'd like to get involved, but we don't have an immediate urgency. I'm 
happy to wait till people are back from holidays.

I'd also like to change the timeslot (which is midnight for me. 3+ hours 
earlier or 6+ hours after would be much easier).
