Web site updates

[Paul W. Frields]

I've updated the http://flocktofedora.org website with the following
information:

* Initial CFP deadline of April 8, 2016
* Sponsor prospectus (thank you Spot!)
* Lodging form for the hotel (thank you Bex!)

I think we may want to relay this info out to the Fedora community as
well.  I can put together an email to the announce@ list if you guys
agree.

SUGGESTED TEXT (feel free to mercilessly edit):

As previously announced, the annual Flock conference for Fedora
contributors will take place August 2-5, 2016 in Krakow, Poland.
Registration is now open at <https://flocktofedora.org>;.

The call for papers is also open, and contributors may submit at the
same registration site.  The deadline for call for paper submissions
is Friday, April 8, 2016.

The hotel venue information is also found at the web site, under
"Location."  Although the hotel does not currently offer an online
booking code, a booking/registration form is available for download.
Instructions are on the web site.

"In a change from previous Flocks, talk and workshop selection will be
driven by a Flock Scheduling panel.  The panel members will work with
the Flock staff and the Fedora Council to determine which talks and
workshops are accepted."
