Sorry for the delay on my answer guys, I've lost this thread as my
inbox becomes gigasized :)

I will be presenting (if everyone agrees) a SWOT analysis comparing
MySQL and PostgreSQL. I've already done this three times at
universities here in Argentina and went smoothly without problems.

What I couldn't find is the schedule, I will be at mexico during
january and probably the US during febraury. Any ideas?

Regards,
Guido.
