Hi all,

looking to the schedule of the Euro OSCON, I found a couple of MySQL
related talks, but no one on PostgreSQL.

Yes, I heard the same thing.  Our contact people asked O'Reilly about it
and O'Reilly says there are some PostgreSQL talks.  Anyway, unlike last
year, I am not planning to attend.

Really? I've spoken to several people who submitted PostgreSQL talks and
they were all rejected in the first round. And there are none on the
official agenda... I can also only find a bunch of MySQL talk and one
(or was it two) Oracle ones.

Positives from LInuxWorld

1. Postgresql was there.
2. Enterprise DB and Greenplum were there.
3. While Sun was talking their big iron (this is a big iron show) they
were saying positives about postgresql as well.
4.  Several sophisticated vendors were talking up postgresql as an
essential and popular component of their user apps which mysql
architecture couldn't handle. More on that later.  Others are making
real efforts.
5. Spike Source people told me they want to certify a LAPP stack Real
Soon Now.

There is now two factor authentication devices for Linux by a Canadian
firm.  Let me know if you would like a special price on 5 devices.
Xen is looking dooable.
Finally, there is another Canadian company with 4u rack space available
in California for $250 with a 24/7 2Mb. pipe. flat rate.

Yes this is true. Several infrastructure stacks as well as people like
CentricCRM. Also OpenERP support postgresql.

Saw that, it looked really interesting.

I certainly hope so. I am getting tired of hearing, run unstable to get
a stable version.
