Hi Selena:

Soooo, as we talked in IRC - we need a postgres speaker. Richard Hipp,
from SQLite is coming. Baron Schwartz and Brandon Checketts are
speaking on MySQL. And I got no PG-love - and I want some PG-love.

Topics that are awesome IMO - Postgres for the recovering MySQL users,
Postgres performance., whats new and awesome in 9.0.

It's June 11-13 (speaker slots are 12-13). As a postgres
user/admin/fan - I really want some presentation from.
I want a postgres booth (which we had last year). (and we'll comp the
booth fee for postgres.)

So Deadlines......May 1 is deadline for speaker proposals.

plz halp

:)

We can probably get someone, but I'm not convinced that I can get
someone in the next 24 hours.

Josh,

Dustan is on it if this is expensive for you to attend.  I know it would

Well I submitted my Performance talk. I don't know when I will hear
back. If Dunstan is approved that is all but a slam dunk cause he is a
heck of a lot closer than I am.

Let's see what happens.
