Regional Contacts review?

From

Advocacy people,

Hey, please take a look at this page:
http://www.postgresql.org/about/press/contact

1) Are some of these contacts out of date?
2) Are there countries/regions where we should be adding new contacts?

Thanks!

included to the
comunity postgresql sites family.

Yaay!  I'm so happy to have a Greek community again.  We haven't had
anyone since Michael left.

Please send me a phone number which press can contact you at.

Oh and can you check the site www.sparks.gr and see if that company
actually supports PostgreSQL?  They want to be listed on Professional
Services.

We don't seem to have a contact in Norway -- I'm available and would
love to help out.

We've been in touch regarding starting a Norwegian PUG. I offered to
help, but I don't know where in the process he's at.

I would have hoped we could get something going for when 8.3 ships, as
announcing both simultaneously to Norwegian tech press might give us a
boost...
