PostgreSQL, PGDAY, PGParty and OSCON 2007 Rocked!

Hello,

For those who were too square to be there, here is my wrap up on the
PostgreSQL presence at OSCON 2007. Don't miss LinuxWorld 2007, it stands
to be even better!

http://www.commandprompt.com/blogs/joshua_drake/2007/07/oscon_2007_postgresql_army_of_smurfs/

I would also note that PostgreSQL raised over 1000.00 dollars this year
at OSCON. That is the most money raised (to my knowledge) at any event
for PostgreSQL. Let's see if we can double that for LinuxWorld shall we?

Of course you can also get a head start here:

Remember that donations are what pay for our ability to advocate at
these shows!

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake

I call this one:

"See! EDB and CMD *are* friends!"

For those who don't know, the big guy with the huge smile across his
face is Jim Nasby of EDB, while the guy he is ahem, hugging is me,
Joshua Drake.

Joshua D. Drake

Left to right: Michael <sorry I don't remember your last name> from UGA
(surely everyone knows what UGA is, right?), Josh Berkus, Jim Nasby,
Josh Drake, David Fetter, Robert Treat.

Prerna Mamgain and Selena Deckelmann (no Josh, it's not "Dickman") have
pictures of the booth with all the bunnies; though neither of them
promised they would be sending the pictures, I'll bet they'll try ;-)
