[Qgis-psc] QGIS Project Page on new OSGEO site

[Tim Sutton]

@Paolo. While I agree that it is not good to deplicate effort, I am not too
worried about duplication here:

* The OSGEO site includes only a precis of the QGIS project
* I have added a bunch of outbound inks to our standard pages on our domain
for all additional detail
* The content on that page is not likely to change often and they have
automated tools for e.g. listing commercial providers etc. (many of whom
would probably benefit from being on the OSGEO site too since they support
multiple OSGEO projects).

If you are still worried, we can chat with the OSGEO web site team to put
your concerns across and see if they have any proposals.

Regards

Tim
