Establishment of Guidelines and Best Practises for the PostgreSQL Advocacy&Marketing project

Hi everyone, It's about time we begin the creation of Guidelines for the PostgreSQL Advocacy and Marketing project, and further to that, begin establishing Best Practises methods for getting the knowledge of PostgreSQL out to the world. The PostgreSQL Advocacy and Marketing Project Guidelines should give us a framework to effectively operate, so people have an immediate grasp of what is acceptable and what isn't. The PostgreSQL Advocacy and Marketing Project Best Practises documents should guide people in taking the Advocacy/Marketing ideas that they have, and turn them into effective strategies, then measure the results (if practical) from implementing them. Does anyone here have recommendations and thoughts on where to start? ;-) Regards and best wishes, Justin Clift -- "My grandfather once told me that there are two kinds of people: those who work and those who take the credit. He told me to try to be in the first group; there was less competition there." - Indira Gandhi

How about getting some guides online like we just did for techdocs. Some of them I can think of 1) Postgresql comparison guide It should link holder for resources that would allow a person to pitch postgresql in a fair comparison. That would help anyone doing evaluation. Links to case studies are great here. 2) Postgresql marketing guide In addition to comparison, this would add support dimension and community effort. It should also show pogress postgresql has made against time. so that we can assure rapid pace of development in terms of feature and performance by sheer extrapolation.. These are two I can think of irght now. Anything more?
