[bcc to -hackers, -general]
Folks,
I'm happy to announce that PostgreSQL will have a home at LinuxWorld in two weeks after all. My company, OpenMFG, is
teamingup with SRA America to wave the elephant flag at booth #1411 - right next door to the ".org Pavillion", two
boothsup from the Intel spread.
OpenMFG is a powerful and feature-rich ERP system that's written with PostgreSQL on the server, and Qt on the client
(binariesavailable for Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X). The business logic is all in pl/pgsql, and performance is
fantasticand very scalable. We'll be handing out CDs with free demo versions of our ERP package, as well as PostgreSQL
8.0source and binaries. The CD will also contain a beta version of our OpenRPT report writer and rendering engine,
whichwe'll be releasing under an open source license at the end of the beta cycle.
SRA America is the US arm of the established Japan-based systems integrator Software Research Associates. As most of
youknow, SRA has been an active supporter of the PostgreSQL project for many years, and they currently employ several
activecontributors to the project, including core developer Bruce Momjian. They provide a variety of PostgreSQL
services,including consulting, migration, support, and training.
So the general idea is that you get:
a) a software product vendor who's built their entire product and business around PostgreSQL, and
b) an international services firm who is leading the charge of PostgreSQL consulting and support in the enterprise.
If you're going to be in Boston from Feb. 15 to 17, please stop by and say hi.
Regards,
Ned Lilly
