Personally I never liked having the "more" link show both events and
training because the design suggests that "more" and "submit event" goes
only with training. The fact we only have one event listed:

http://www.postgresql.org/about/eventarchive

suggests that people don't realize they can submit events using the link
under Training. That should be fixed somehow.

FYI, why is the Brazil Postgres conference not listed:
