[DOCS] Mentioning Slony in docs

By Simon Riggs at Nov 15, 2007, 5:11 pm UTC

IMHO it would be appropriate to provide better links to Slony from within the Postgres docs. The main reason is that Slony is Copyrighted PGDG, so we own the code and it is of course BSD licenced. Now that this has been highlighted to me, I can't see a reason for the previous balanced approach. More...

[pgsql-advocacy] Argentina and advocacy (re: regional contacts)

By Guido Barosio at Nov 15, 2007, 2:43 pm UTC

Guys, I haven't seen any activity in Argentina, and I haven't seen the regional contact in open source events also. I would love to take the flag, I've already made this public a year ago, and nothing has changed. Even more, there has been none at all activity in our country. Sad :( My last... More...

[pgsql-advocacy] Gborg: announcement by 404

By Greg Sabino Mullane at Nov 15, 2007, 03:06 am UTC

Said in another list: Did I miss something, or was there no post made to -announce and/or -general about this? Since even people on the -www list seemed to have been caught by surprise by the move, I think we should at least make a public announcement. Perhaps a news item or other mention on the... More...

By Bruce Momjian at Nov 14, 2007, 6:47 pm UTC

Agreed. I assume it was just done this way due to frustration, which isn't a great way to deal with things, but I think we all understand it. stage, I wasn't going to slow down something I have been waiting for for years. ;-) )... More...

Re: [pgsql-advocacy] Avoiding upgrade backlash

By Andrew Sullivan at Nov 14, 2007, 5:29 pm UTC

I think this is true. I think it maybe ought to be right at the top of the notes, and maybe ought to be linked off the announcement of the sort Users upgrading from previous releases want to read this <a etc> compatibility note</a> I think maybe how Debian handled the notes about kernel changes in...

[pgsql-advocacy] Wiki change (oops)

By Magnus Hagander at Nov 12, 2007, 4:40 pm UTC

I wanted to add a point to the 83ReleaseFeatures page on the wiki. Did that, and upon saving it seems it ate about half the page - parts that I certainly didn't edit. Anyway. I can find the revision history, but I can't figure out how to revert the changes and go back to the earlier version. Can... More...

Re: [pgsql-advocacy] The definition of PGDG

By Andrew Sullivan at Nov 9, 2007, 3:50 pm UTC

This is an interesting question, and one that the IETF faced a number of years ago, winding up only recently. There are some possibly troubling bits of news in the various IETF archives on this topic (in particular, pay attention to the creation of the IETF trust). That said, I have some reason to...
