Thread: FOSDEM 2008 - Devroom and booth
Hello all,
if you don't know yet: our request for a devroom together with the
BSD guys was accepted this week. Thanks to Daniel Seuffert for
submitting the request. We also got a table for a stand, which we
should fill with some flyers, info material, a bit merchandising stuff
and some people behind the table for answering all the questions.
We have to submit a program for the talks, we have so far:
(i took the first/best fitting talk from everyone)
Simon Riggs:
- "PostgreSQL High Availability"
Josh Berkus:
- "A Few of My Favorite 8.3 Features"
Gabriele Bartolini:
- "ht://Miner and PostgreSQL"
David Fetter:
- "Postgres: A Babel of PLs"
Oleg Bartunov:
- Full text search
Guido Barosio:
- Comparing MySQL and PostgreSQL
(is this still up to date?)
Stefan Kaltenbrunner:
- A talk about the PostgreSQL Infrastructure
Magnus Hagander:
- Something about the MSVC port ;-)
Susanne Ebrecht:
- Encoding issues
Bruce Momjian:
- ???
Federico Campoli:
- ???
We have around 9 slots to fill, a bit more, if we have some 15 min
talks. Update me please, if you want to give another talk.
What else:
- social event: the usual FOSDEM social event is overcrowd. We plan to
search a bar for our own event on friday evening.
- flyers: we need some (thousands).
- booth: who can help answering questions on saturday and/or sunday?
- merchandising stuff: i will bring along some elephants and mugs.
I thought about 20-30 elephants plus one or two 60 cm elephants i might
have until next year ;-) I also should have mugs, some stickers and i
have some shirts from Italy. What else do we need and/or can bring to
Brussels?
- live CDs: based on experience from 2007, if we want to give away live
CDs, we should come up with let's say 1500-2000 CDs.
- Invitations for european PostgreSQL users and companies using
PostgreSQL??
- And last but not least: election of EU board!
Kind regards

The standard way to distribute large files is Bittorrent, and I believe Magnus knows the most about this :) However, wouldn't there be some fairly short script which would let someone construct their own LiveCD? While on the subject of LiveCDs--CDs and DVDs in general, come to think of it--I've noticed that the vast majority of people at trade shows stuff such things into their goodie bag and then throw them out unopened.

While I'm sure tossing out the goodies happens, I have heard directly from four people that they used it, and it prompted them to look into PostgreSQL further. It might be fun to offer copy the ISO to a USB drive at the booth. Keeps people hanging out, and helps eliminate waste :) But for now, I think we should continue to create and distribute the physical CDs. -selena -- Selena Deckelmann PDXPUG - Portland PostgreSQL Users Group http://pugs.postgresql.org/pdx http://www.chesnok.com/daily

I remember when Marc put the first version of pg_live on bit-torrent. Back
then I had used damn small linux to keep it small i.e. 235mb. The thing about
bit-torrent is that it would still require pg_live to have at least one
active connection which means a server would need to run it. Where would it
reside?
> However, wouldn't there be some fairly short script which would let

I woul need to create the following 3 scripts:
- script one
- copy an existing xubuntu ISO to the developer's hard-drive
- initialize a development environment for this ISO
- ensure the proper packages on the developer machine are present (which
distro?)
- script two
- to edit / remove / add the base packages for a default pg_live ISO
- script three
- compile and copy postgres on the developer's default OS over to pg_live
which incorporates all the necesary libaries for the various procedural
languages that pg_live uses.
Finally, I would need to automate the process of adding pg_live specific
documentation.
As you can see, creating the necesary script is a major undertaking. But
you're right, if this existed it would sure make life easier for all parties
concerned.

I sure hope you're not seeing this happen with the CD. I pour my heart into
making an ISO from scratch :-(
(but not so bad when I'm just upgrading postgres).

In general, we try to give away the CDs to people whom we've *talked* to, although we can't stop a certain number of "grabby anns". I'd actually expect, at least at OSCON and LWE, that we probably get 10%-20% of people at least putting the CDs in their machine. -- --Josh Josh Berkus PostgreSQL @ Sun San Francisco

Sounds good, but since 8.3 will be released in 2008, we have a small
timing problem. I will not be online from end of january until mid of
february, can anybody from EU take over here and manage to get CDs as
give-away? The time i'm coming back from holidays until FOSDEM is too
short to get things on the way.

There are no special needs (as far as i can see this) for FOSDEM, i
only would recommend a actual PG version. Since 8.3 should be available
at this time and a lot of talks are about 8.3, we also should have a
live CD with 8.3 available.

Sorry for the delay on my answer guys, I've lost this thread as my inbox becomes gigasized :) I will be presenting (if everyone agrees) a SWOT analysis comparing MySQL and PostgreSQL. I've already done this three times at universities here in Argentina and went smoothly without problems. What I couldn't find is the schedule, I will be at mexico during january and probably the US during febraury. Any ideas? Regards, Guido.
