What is the best value for training bucks for pg admin/internals?
I know the answer, of course, read the source, but I'd like to take a class
if there is a great one to be found.  Thanks.

Wouldn't this be the perfect opportunity for one of the gurus to
announce their killer new online gratis training program?

I ffel the same - that in some form - it is needed.

I'm not sure if others on this list would agree?

OK, as a novice, I don't know there is an Advocacy list, so
thanks for the information.  Maybe some of the instrumentation
issues I've discussed is there, no response here...

We offer PostgreSQL administration (and developer) training - and are a
contributor to the PostgreSQL project through SPI.  We also offer the
best value proposition for PostgreSQL training in the USA - our courses
(most of them 5 days) are priced at $2,195 and include 5 nights of hotel
accommodation and round-trip airfare within the US and parts of Canada.

There are lots of customer testimonials on our web site as well ....
most from customers who have attended our courses multiple times...

We are also the only PostgreSQL training company that I know of that
offers classroom-based, instructor-led training that is guaranteed to
run (most of the courses that we offer at our Morrisville, NC location
are guaranteed to run - regardless of enrollment) - so you can get
training when you schedule it (most training providers will cancel the
course if they have less than a certain number of people attending)...
We also offer on-site training (where we ship the books, materials, etc.
to you).
