Thread: Have been accepted as a writer for "The Register"
Hi guys, Just today found out I've been accepted by "The Register" to write news items for them in regards to Open Source happenings. :) That should be really useful for us all (us, them, Open Source in general). Letting everyone know in case they come across any Open Source News type stuff that should be out there (PostgreSQL and other stuff too I guess), and also because it's probably of decent strategic value. :-) Regards and best wishes, Justin Clift -- "My grandfather once told me that there are two kinds of people: those who work and those who take the credit.

Great. The Register usually has very good articles. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Justin Clift wrote: > Hi guys, > > Just today found out I've been accepted by "The Register" to write news > items for them in regards to Open Source happenings. :) > > That should be really useful for us all (us, them, Open Source in > general). > > Letting everyone know in case they come across any Open Source News type > stuff that should be out there (PostgreSQL and other stuff too I guess), > and > also because it's probably of decent strategic value. > > :-) > > Regards and best wishes, > > Justin Clift > > -- > "My grandfather once told me that there are two kinds of people: those > who work and those who take the credit.

In related news, the PostgreSQL development team announced on Monday that PostgreSQL, the open-source ORDBMS, continues to be available for no fee." :-) Cheers, Neil -- Neil Conway <neilconway@rogers.com> PGP Key ID: DB3C29FC

Hi John, That's an interesting thought. I really don't know yet.

Might be a foolish question, but will your articles appear on both the UK and US sites?
