I wouldn't mind talking (or hosting a discussion) but have been unable to think of anything that other hackers might be
interestedin. I obviously can't discuss the server internals in any great depth, but if anyone wants to hear about
pgadmin,pginstaller, the web infrastructure or something else I've worked on, please let me know and I'll see if I can
submita proposal.

Many thanks to them.

Folks,

Wanted to update you on a few things regarding speaking at the upcoming
PostgreSQL Anniversary Summit:

-- There are only 13 days left to submit a proposal.  Please do so.  We'd
rather not be forced into a last-minute rush to evaluate all of the stuff
in April.  Remember this is a "family" event so you don't have to have all
of your materials together before you send something.  Heck, if you have
an idea for a talk you'd really, really, really like to see and can't give
it, send it anyway.  We may be able to find a speaker.

-- Due to e-mail issues (not fixed) we lost some proposals without a trace.
So if you submitted a proposal to us, and have not already received a
response, please re-submit it!  We might not have seen it.

-- Thanks to the tremendous generosity of Afilias, EnterpriseDB, Greenplum,
and Pervasive (as well as SRA and OpenMFG), we will have the budget to
help some speakers with travel funds.   So if you were holding off on a
proposal because you weren't sure you could afford to fly to Toronto,
please send one in.

Proposals can be sent through http://conference.postgresql.org/Proposals/
or directly to conference-submissions@pgfoundry.org.

Well, aside from anything else, we seem likely to have you, Devrim, Magnus and
maybe even Robert Treat there (Robert?).  Which would mean a good time for a
meeting of the Web Team, yes?

It also seems likely that we'll have a "meaningful quorum" of Slony
developers, which would imply the same thing for Slony...

It seems that I'll be there, and yes, a PostgreSQL.org web development
session will be cool.
