Folks,

No doubt several/many of you are planning on attending OSCON 2005. The
PostgreSQL community will have a large, commercial booth in the exhibit
hall at OSCON this year, sponsored by SRA and CommandPrompt. And we need
you to help staff it.

Based on last year, I expect that many of us will hang out at the booth
anyway and it will be the place to discuss database programming at the
conference. Since the exhibit hall will be open to the public for the
first time this year, we also need to make sure that the booth is a busy
hive of activity at all times.

So I'm asking all PostgreSQL community people who are attending OSCON to
volunteer for one or more "shifts" during which you are committed to
helping staff the booth. Available shifts are:

Wednesday 10am - 11:30am
Wednesday 11:30am - 1pm
Wednesday 1pm - 2:30pm
Wednesday 2:30pm - 4:30 pm
Wednesday 6:00pm - 7:30pm
Thursday 10am - 11:30am
Thursday 11:30am - 1pm
Thursday 1pm - 2:30pm
Thursday 2:30pm - 4:30 pm

It may help you to look at the OSCON master schedule to figure out when
your best time is: http://conferences.oreillynet.com/os2005/grid/

All volunteers who work the booth will get a free enamel PostgreSQL pin.
Anyone who covers 3 or more shifts will get a free t-shirt (I have 5
left).

Please contact me before Friday, July 29th so that I know you are coming
and will help. I will prepare a schedule, e-mail it, and have it at the
booth when the show opens.

**Let me know your e-mail address, name, what shifts you are available for
(and how many you'll do), and your cell phone number for the show.**
