The difference in the two sections is that one is to keep advocacy oriented
material... stuff the someone who is trying to determine if postgresql is
good for them would need to know. The other section is aimed more at people
who use postgresql everyday, or need to explore deeper into the different
options they have with postgresql. I think there will probably be some
overlap between the two sections, but I also think we have enough content for
a split if we pull in information from advocacy and techdocs, something we've
been talking about doing for some time.

I mean listing "regular" events seperate from "training" events, sort of like
we have news seperate from events now.
