***** Call for Papers *****

Starting today, the "call for papers" is open, so if you'd like to

 * contact info (name, phone, company)
 * topic of the session (abstract, what is the goal, etc.)
 * expected length (usually 40 minutes)

This is a developer conference, so we're interested mostly in session
from the user/developer point of view. Let us list several interesting
aread just for inspiration:

 * new, unique and unconventional ways how to use PostgreSQL
 * migrating production systems to PostgreSQL
 * DWH systems based on PostgreSQL
 * hacking PostgreSQL code
 * problems when deploying PostgreSQL
 * other open source databases (Firebird, MySQL, ...)

But this list definitely is not comprehensive, there are many other
interesting topics.

We're looking for two english-speaking guest, the other talks will be in
czech language. We're going to cover travel and hotel expenses up to
about 500 EUR (should be enough for 2 nights in a hotel and air ticket
from Europe).
