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.
