Call for Posters: PGConf.dev 2025

Dear pgsql-hackers,

As we prepare for the PostgreSQL Development Conference 2025 (PGConf.dev 2025), scheduled for May 13–16 in Montreal, Canada, we are excited to host a poster session showcasing the contributions and projects within our community.

If you’re planning to attend PGConf.dev 2025, your participation would be an invaluable addition, and we’d love to showcase your work.

I've contacted several authors of patches that have been rescheduled multiple times in the CommitFests. But then decided to make a broader call for posters.

The goal of the poster session is to visually present your patch or project on an A2-sized poster (ANSI C, 17" × 22"). We encourage you to include:
/*
* A visual representation of your patch or project.
* The conference logo and year.
* Information on what attention or collaboration your project requires.
* Contact details for potential collaborators to reach you or your team.
* (E.g. a QR code to your patch or project, email, or messenger)
*/

If you're unsure where to start, I'll be happy to send you my own poster soon (created in PowerPoint) as a stub. Additionally, it would be greatly appreciated if your poster could be used as an example for others in their work.

We hope to print and bring all the posters to the conference, but if you prefer to handle your poster's printing and transportation, it would certainly be appreciated. Posters will be displayed in dedicated conference spaces and removed after the event, and you are welcome to take them home if you wish.

If you want to read about typical poster sessions you can reffer to this wiki page [0]. However, there are some differences. Please note that our poster session will be somewhat experimental. The main focus is on improving collaboration: attracting coauthors, reviewers, maybe committers, improving the overall discussion, etc. Let me know if you would like to present your poster or have a question.

Thank you for your ongoing contributions to PostgreSQL, and I look forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,
Andrey Borodin
