Not that I know of.  You have time to write an article?

I'm not sure of LJ's production schedule and specifically, in which
magazine a PG9 article would appear in relation to the release, if
that's what you mean, but I'm going to inquire.  I do, however, have
enough bandwidth to do this and as soon as I get approval from an editor
there I'll start working on the article.

I'm going to try to do a feature length (2,500 words) article, so if I
don't get enough material in describing what's new I might also do a
step-by-step of the streaming replication.  If I do that - do you expect
any changes between the Beta (available now) and final versions in
regards to replication?

Harass Robert Treat for his slides from "No More Waiting" from pgCon.
It should have lots of material, but he hasn't posted them.

Josh,

I'll be writing an article for LWN.  So that's two major
english-language publications.

Anyone on this list a writer for TheRegister?
