Since we missed out on EuroOSCON, I think we should consider having a
presence at this one.  The European conference schedule is very crowded
in October and November, but if we can compile a reasonable PostgreSQL
track, I think this one could be worthwhile.

Definitly not, I've been looking there as well. Didn't even know Bruce
submitted one.

I submitted one about integrating postgresql in a windows environment.
And I *think* Simon submitted one himself as well?
