Hello!

I wanted to follow up on this and check if the Madrid and Barcelona PUGs can be added to the PostgreSQL community user groups page: https://www.postgresql.org/community/user-groups/

We held the first event in Madrid on May 30th  and we are having the first event in Barcelona on September 19th. Being listed on the page will be helpful to spreading the word.

Thank you,

Andrea

Hello,

David Pitts (cc'd) and I have recently created two meetup groups to organize Postgres events in Madrid and Barcelona.

We are reaching out to request the addition of our groups to the official Postgres PUGs page on the postgres.org website, as we believe we comply with the community requirements.

Here are the links to our groups:

https://www.meetup.com/barcelona-postgresql-meetup-group/

https://www.meetup.com/madrid-postgresql-user-group/

Although this is a joint effort, we decided to have two separate groups since the cities are 625 km apart and we believe the audiences are different. We have created a LinkedIn page to bring them under the same umbrella:

https://www.linkedin.com/company/barcelona-madrid-postgresql-user-groups

In Madrid, the inaugural event will be next week on May 30. In Barcelona, we are targeting our first event for September 18/19, as the period from mid-June to the end of August is not ideal for events in this region.

However, we are still looking for a host for the Barcelona event. We are in ongoing conversations with a couple of organizations (Gartner, Adevinta) that have shown interest, but we don't have a confirmation yet. Therefore, we are still asking around and would like to finalize this as soon as possible to promote the event in advance. Codesource can host us on November 20. Any suggestions on how to secure a host in Barcelona for the September event would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Andrea
