we just had a small discussion on irc about this.

My opinion (seconded by at least one other person) is:

postgresql.eu is about PostgreSQL. Surely the user group is a big
PostgreSQL topic, but it's not the only one.

If i visit "http://www.postgresql.eu/" i expect information about
PostgreSQL, maybe about PostgreSQL in the european area. I don't expect
the entire site occupied by the user group.

So postgresql.eu should have a big fat blue link to the user group page
(wherever this page might be), but the user group page itself should be
somewhere else.

Ask the italians, why they chose itpug, not postgresql.it ;-)
Other user groups did this too.

Another side-note: everybody is shortening "PostgreSQL" to "PG", why do
we name the user group shortcut "P" (PostgreSQL User Group)?

Kind regards
