Re: exploring exhibition opportunity at FOSS4G in Calgary, Alberta, Canada

Hello all,

Apparently there is lots of interest in this, so I have withdrawn my name
from consideration in hopes that someone with more experience/closer to the
venue has applied. I ask you Mark, and all of Postgres Advocacy, to please
consider having a woman or other minority fill this spot, especially a
Canadian from an underrepresented group. It's a wonderful opportunity, and
the optics will be bad if you select a man when qualified minorities have
shown interest. If no women or other minorities have shown interest,
please let me know and I will re-submit my name for consideration.

Thank you!
Katie
