Re: PostgreSQL 11 Release: Call for Quotes - Mailing list pgsql-advocacy

Hi,

PostgreSQL 11 is currently in beta testing[1][2] (Beta 2 was released 2018-06-28),

which means we that we are underway in terms of pulling together all of our content

and materials for the release.

One feature we always like to include in the press release are quotes from

people using PostgreSQL that help to highlight the importance and utility of

the upcoming release. For examples of quotes in recent past releases, please see:

* PostgreSQL 10 [3]

* PostgreSQL 9.6 [4]

* PostgreSQL 9.5 [5]

In this tradition, we would like to receive some quotes for the upcoming PostgreSQL 11

release that highlight how you are using PostgreSQL how the new features will impact

your experience. For inspiration, please look at the Beta release announcements[1][2], the

release notes[6], or various blog articles highlighting the new features that can be seen

on Planet PostgreSQL[7] or the community Twitter feed[8].

If you are interested in submitting a quote, please include the following:

* Your Name

* Your Organization

* A 1-3 sentence quote that highlights your usage of PostgreSQL, either around a

new feature or how PostgreSQL has helped you scale / save / develop more rapidly.

If you are submitting on behalf of your organization please ensure you have permission

to provide the quote.

Please send your submissions to press@postgresql.org no later than September 7, 2018.

Thanks!

Jonathan
