Contact Josh Drake > <jd@commandprompt.com> ERRATUM: This week's PWN sent out a call for "booth bunnies" for the OSCON 2006 PostgreSQL booth. The author, Josh Berkus, is familiar with this slang marketing term in use at LinuxWorld and elsewhere, meaning "inexperienced volunteer to work a booth." However, several alert readers pointed out that the slang term has a second, less flattering meaning. Therefore the request should have read: Booth Volunteers are wanted for the PostgreSQL booth at OSCON. You will get a free Exhibit Hall pass to hang out with OSS developers, and maybe some PostgreSQL swag (depending on supply). If you live in the Portland area, please consider having some fun with us at the booth. July 26-27, Portland Convention Center, OR.
