Re: Conference Brochure

Hi Alberto and Allan,

I finished a first draft of the brochure including the timeline you wanted.
I'm linking to a PDF version [0] and I uploaded the svg to GitHub [1].
Allan et al, if you have time please send me feedback. Since I spend all my
time coding these days it might look like crap :) I also updated the
description of the town with info I found in the GUADEC bid. Let me know if
you would like any of the info/wording changed. I also updated the
sponsorship form so you can use it for 2017 [2].

Thanks!
Meg
