Thread: Press release source code
Can one get at a source-like format of the 8.1 press release? I would like to print out a few copies for LinuxWorld Expo next week but I don't want to have to extract the text embedded in the web site layout. -- Peter Eisentraut http://developer.postgresql.org/~petere/

I guess you can can either use the original text file from the PR pgfoundry project or the HTML press kit, which contains the press release text but does not include the website layout. In English: http://cvs.pgfoundry.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/press/pr/releases/8.1/en/presskit81.html.en http://cvs.pgfoundry.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/press/pr/releases/8.1/en/release.txt In German: http://cvs.pgfoundry.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/press/pr/releases/8.1/de/presskit81.html.de http://cvs.pgfoundry.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/press/pr/releases/8.1/de/release.txt An more languages available. Best Regards, Michael Paesold
You can get it from the pr project or the web project cvs. For example, http://gborg.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/portal/template/en/about/ press/presskit81.html?rev=1.5;content-type=text%2Fplain;cvsroot=pgweb You'll need to get rid of the title block at top, buit that's the top three lines only. The rest should be straight xhtml. //Magnus > -----Original Message----- > From: pgsql-advocacy-owner@postgresql.org > [mailto:pgsql-advocacy-owner@postgresql.org] On Behalf Of > Peter Eisentraut > Sent: Thursday, November 10, 2005 1:49 PM > To: pgsql-advocacy@postgresql.org > Subject: [pgsql-advocacy] Press release source code > > Can one get at a source-like format of the 8.1 press release? > I would like to print out a few copies for LinuxWorld Expo > next week but I don't want to have to extract the text > embedded in the web site layout. > > -- > Peter Eisentraut > http://developer.postgresql.org/~petere/ > > ---------------------------(end of > broadcast)--------------------------- > TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings >

I figured as much, but the pgfoundry page does not include links into the CVS tree. I assumed this was a security mechanism, but obviously this can be easily circumvented. I'll use the links you posted. Thanks. -- Peter Eisentraut http://developer.postgresql.org/~petere/

I'll use the links you posted. Thanks. Pretty much. We just don't want to make it casually easy for someone to jump the releases by 48 hours. They should at least have some knowledge of the community to do that. ;-) -- Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco
