List pgsql-hackers
Here is an updated version of our developers biography page.  I am
interested in locations for:

    Christopher Kings-Lynne
    Barry Lind
    Dave Page
    Rod Taylor

The format is usually large city, state/province, country.

Also, I would like Company, Company URL for anyone interested in adding
that to their entry in the list.  I will send out individualized emails
about that as well.

Of course, corrections/improvements are encouraged.
