Folks,

We have a marketing group: PGSQL-ADVOCACY.   Our problem is that we
don't have enough volunteers.

For example, last week Robert and Justin had job crises, and I left for
the mountains for Thanksgiving.  As a result Marc had to pitch in at
the last minute to try to get some kind of release out.  Thus the lack
of coordinated media splash for the 7.3 release.

We need more people!!! We have right now about 7 active volunteers and
6-8 translators for Advocacy.  That's not nearly enough.  If the people
on this thread care about marketing Postgresql, then please join the
pgsql-advocacy mailing list.

BTW, we do coordinate with the Website development group, and for that
matter TechDocs.

Hi Josh,

I'm in.  My time is limited, and I do like coding for Postgres as well.  I'd
like to contribute articles, etc. once we have some sort of portal up and
running...

BTW, is there any way of making the subject line say [ADVOCACY] instead of
[pgsql-advocacy]?

Chris
