Call for Presentations: pgDay San Jose

pgDay San Jose will be on Sunday July 19th. This is the day before
O'Reilly's Open Source Conference (OSCON). The event is hosted by the
San Francisco Bay Area PostgreSQL Users Group and O'Reilly and
will be held in the same location at OSCON.

We are looking for speakers.

We will be taking five 50-minute presentations and six 5-minute
Lightning Talks for the pgDay. Talks should be pitched for an audience
of application developers and DBAs, and should be fairly technical. All
technology covered should be open source. Topics that we might like to
have would include:

-- Geographic databases
-- Cool PostgreSQL case studies
-- Unusual and interesting PostgreSQL-based tools
-- Performance engineering
-- Scaling applications
-- Cool SQL / Procedural language tricks
-- Programming languages and PostgreSQL
-- The PostgreSQL community

Please submit a proposal as soon as you can. The deadline for proposals
is June 8th, and speakers will be informed on June 20th.
