Alf BaezHi Geeks, This was, an awesome meeting, the crowd was brilliant! Thanks to Bruce for the presentation and introducing us to 9.0 release, thanks Mason for facilitating the list and putting the meeting up on the calendar. We definitely should keep this enthusiasm on… let’s keep poring every-one’s energy into it… by helping and commit to the group. 1) Presentation for developers, Jonathan, has offered to talked/present
about “ORMs”, thanks Jonathan.
2) Presentation for in-depth DBAs with advance topics such as R.A.C, Standbys, Fine Tuning. I think there are good offers from Mladen, and Anthony.
3) Presentation for new comers/starting DBAs/Developers, basics. Open to any one who want to commit on presenting something light and welcoming with the basics.
Also excuse my short memory, if I’ve left any one’s idea or suggestions out. Just come forward and mention it again here or on the distribution list.
Cheers
Alf

Jonathan S. KatzCo-OrganizerVery informative - this did confirm a bunch of things I knew about 9.0 but also elaborated on some points I did not know. Additionally, we had a lot of discussion about some of our current uses of Postgres and what we are looking forward to, in addition to ways we can help build up resources for educating and making more database users aware of what Postgres can offer.
