That's what I thought too; I see regular offers to help funding first
meetings to PUGs when people ask here about starting a PUG in their
city.  I emailed funds@postgresql.org but got absolutely no response

BTW people were extremely happy with the event.  Somebody offered a room
for free at their workplace for future repeats.  This one was expensive.
