Hi! I'm on the committee for MySQL Conf this year, and the committee is specifically seeking talks about PostgreSQL. The idea is to broaden the scope of the conference to include a lot of different open source database technology, including a bunch more about Postgres. The organizing committee is specifically seeking PostgreSQL talks - some of you may have heard from Baron or Robin already about this. The CFP is here: http://en.oreilly.com/mysql2011/public/cfp/126 The submission deadline for all proposals is October 25, 2010! Topics for consideration include: * Innovative uses of Postgres * Data warehousing * Architectures based on Postgres * PostGIS * Government + Postgres * [your favorite web framework] + Postgres * Performance and optimization * Security and database administration * "In the cloud" * Business and case studies Please contact me directly for feedback, help with submissions or help generating ideas. And if you're submitting, please just drop me a line to let me know! I'd love to hear from all that are interested. -selena -- http://chesnok.com/daily - me -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
