Thread: PostgreSQL Magazine : Call for Reviewers !
Hi ! The layout editing of the demo issue of the PostgreSQL Print Magazine is almost ready ! I have good hope to publish a RC1 version on Monday 23th. Then will start the proof reading period of approximately 10 days. During this period i need a bunch of volunteers to read the entire magazine and spot me any error they see : spell check, grammar or syntax errors, layout mismatch and other glitches. General comments and advices on the magazine are welcome too, of course. The magazine has 24 pages. Proof-reading might take from 30 to 90 minutes depending how fast you read. So if you want to help and have time to review the magazine, please send me an e-mail in private at damien@dalibo.info and i'll send you the links to download the magazine once the RC1 is done. Regards, -- damien PS : Obviously i'm not the only to believe that print media are not dead ! :-) Google just launched its own magazine about a month ago. It's pompously called "Think Quaterly" and it's quite interesting both for its content and its design : http://thinkquarterly.co.uk/ If you want to know what google does and wants to do with your data, this is a must-read ;)
> The layout editing of the demo issue of the PostgreSQL Print Magazine is > almost ready ! I'm willing to edit part of it. Do we have an article about 9.1? That should be just around the time the beta comes out. I can't write it ... I'm doing one for LWN. -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com

Yes ! Hubert Lubaczewski kindly accepted to publish one of his "waiting for 9.1" articles. There's also an announcement of the alpha 5 that will be replaced by beta if PG 9.1 goes beta before the mag is out And if there's an issue #01, I guess the main topic will be 9.1 :) -- damien clochard dalibo.com | dalibo.org
