Thread: "make install" note
Hi,
When you do a "make install" (current CVS, if it matters)
you are invited to fill in a survey:
And, so that we have an idea of who is using what, please connect to the
following registration URL:
http://www.postgresql.org -> Helping Us -> Survey/Register
I couldn't find this page -- I suspect the message (from
pgsql/register.txt) should be updated.

Good question. I think we should use: http://www.postgresql.org -> User's Lounge -> Register as a user but that page only talks about Projects.

user_gallery && register -> http://www.pgsql.com/register/ which is the same as http://www.pgsql.com/user_gallery On Tue, 8 May 2001, Vince Vielhaber wrote: > On Tue, 8 May 2001, Bruce Momjian wrote: > > > > Hi, > > > > > > When you do a "make install" (current CVS, if it matters) > > > you are invited to fill in a survey: > > > > > > And, so that we have an idea of who is using what, please connect to the > > > following registration URL: > > > > > > http://www.postgresql.org -> Helping Us -> Survey/Register > > > > > > I couldn't find this page -- I suspect the message (from > > > pgsql/register.txt) should be updated. > > > > Good question.

Its meant to be a combination thing ... if you have no project info, just enter details ... if you can think of a better way of displaying that point, I'm open to get it changed, that's for sure ...

Within a week or so, techdocs.postgresql.org/surveys/ could be a useful addition to the survey. It doesn't yet put the data in the database, so it's kind of useless presently. :-/ + Justin On Wednesday 09 May 2001 03:24, Vince Vielhaber wrote: > On Tue, 8 May 2001, The Hermit Hacker wrote: > > user_gallery && register -> http://www.pgsql.com/register/ > > > > which is the same as http://www.pgsql.com/user_gallery > > Looking at the page, it's not obvious how someone registers as a > PostgreSQL user.
