Hi,

Alot of folks over the years have contributed to the user gallery
[http://www.pgsql.com/user_gallery/] which is great. But the user
gallery has even more effect when people actually read it :)

Could the currect user gallery be some how "mutated" to also be
a PostgreSQL Web Ring. That is , when you sign up on the gallery
you get an icon, with a little chunk of html code. You can then
take this icon and proudly post it on your site as powered by postgresql.

When people click on it, they'd get directed to you gallery entry.

Or something like that. "click here for next project in the webring" etc..

This doesn't nativly apply to all projects [only web based ones] but that
in and of it's self is a large market.

PostgreSQL has alot of good advocacy sites out there , alot of commuity
support. But it's very scattered. Perhaps by seeing what we already have
and mutating those things, instead of always starting from scratch, we
could move further ahead faster.

If this is not an option, I'd be willing to put my time into making a
PostgreSQL Webring, that would allow people to proudly say "we run postres"
and see more who have made the right choice.

Let me know any feed back.
