Re: Fwd: [pgsql-jobs] DB Engineer with OO development background in San Francisco, CA

I worked with both Peter and Kelly a couple of years ago at IconMedialab
in San Francisco. I didn't know they were using Postgres @ Admios - I
am hoping my regular praise of PG had something to do with that - but
they are a strong group doing interesting work. I would work with them
again if the chance arose.
