Hi guys,
I am trying to get sorted out the PostgreSQL flyers for the Italian
Community. Unfortunately, we do not have a list of companies that use it
that we can print on the second page. Therefore we have some free space.
I was wondering, given that everyone who is new to PostgreSQL asks met
that, if we can put a small frame in the second page that explains why
the symbol of PostgreSQL is an elephant.
I came up with this issue on the IRC channel a few days ago and I had
a few answers. Also I looked on wikipedia and have come up with a few items:
1) an elephant never forgets
2) the elephant is the strongest animal on earth
3) the elephant has a long life
4) the elephant is the largest land animal
5) symbols of wisdom in Asian cultures
6) famed for their exceptional memory and high intelligence
Am I off track? Please let me know, I am sure it would be nice to add
such a foot note on the flyer.
Ciao,
Gabriele
