[Conference-attendees] Three more Lightning Talks wanted! (and Code Sprint)

[Josh Berkus]

PostgreSQL Anniversary-goers:

First off, I wanted to let everyone know that we're a little over capacity 
for the Code Sprint.   The Code Sprint is intended to be two days of 
intensive hacking on the PostgreSQL code to get ready for 8.2 or start 
work on a new feature.   If you signed up because you were expecting 
something different, or not sure you're really up to 16+ hours of marathon 
coding, please speak up and I'll remove you from the Code Sprint.

Second, we're looking for three more "lightning talks" for the conference.  

Lightning talks are 5-minute talks on one brief topic.  It's a great way to 
get started with giving tech talks if you haven't before; it's a good way 
to introduce ideas which you don't have full examples for, and it's an 
opportunity for those of you whose talks were not chosen for the 
conference. See http://perl.plover.com/lightning-talks.html for the 
concept.
 
Here's the conditions:
 
-- Each Lightning talk is 5 mintues. 
-- You may use only up to 8 slides of PDF slides, which must be sent to the 
conference no later than June 15th. 
-- You may have only a 1 page handout, which must be to the conference on 
the same date. 
-- Neither slides nor handout are required. 
-- No demos. 

So, submit a Lightning Talk now to conference-submissions at pgfoundry.org!  
Please include your full name, and a talk title and description.
