Folks,
Because of the number of questions on this I'm posting the full CfP on the
lists. Sorry for excess traffic to those who aren't interested.
I'll add to the below that this is part of an Open Source event the day before
JavaOne. So the focus should be on Java applications, preferably mature OSS
projects, which use PostgreSQL. You should also have something unique or
interesting to say about the project, rather than just "this is my OSS
project."

We're looking to you to define what the conference program should cover. We’ll

than 2,500 innovative developers); you bring your projects, your expertise,
and your colleagues.
The call for participation is open from now until January 31, 2008.
