Обсуждение: Importand points about PostgreSQL
Hi, In two weeks, I'll hold a talk on PostgreSQL in the south German "Chaos-Seminar"[1] series organized by the local Chaos Computer Club division in a room of the Ulm University. Those talks usually are rather informal, no entrance fee, most of the listeners are students, I've about 90-100 minutes to fill. I plan give some broad view about the history, community and features in the first half, and to pack some technical details like MVCC in the second part of the talk. The slides will be put online, and it is very probable that there will be a public video of the session, too. As I'm biased from a pure technical view, I ask you here about topics you regard as being worth of mentioning in my talk. I'll consider all you mail me personally or over the list, but I don't promise to actually include everything. Just think of this thread as some kind of brainstorming. Thanks, Markus [1] http://ulm.ccc.de/ChaosSeminar/

I gave a Talk about PG last year in Brandenburg (with 7.3 as base) and a modernized version with 8.1 as base some weeks ago in Magdeburg. My Slides are online at [1], feel free to use them as information. If you want the TeX-Source, send a private mail. Interesting points usually are: - ACID-Compliance, Transactions, Rules, Triggers, Functions - Subselects - Inheritance - Point in time recovery / write ahead logs [1] http://net-tex.dnsalias.org/~stefan/nt/unix/MD-060704-Postgresql-Einfuehrung.pdf -- Pedites pugnas decernent http://www.jaegerseiten.de Horrido! http://www.net-tex.de http://www.cryptomancer.de

Yes, maybe that's a hint for pepole searching for tasks... I'd like to link to alternatives on the web site, can you recommend some?

I think Glom does that. If it's not listed on that page, maybe it should.

Naming it "access-like" appears quite ambitious. Did you ever write an app with it, or do you know anybody who did? Regards, Andreas

Glom looks promising, so I added it on my talk's page, maybe it should be added on http://www.postgresql.org/download/, too. Markus -- Markus Schaber | Logical Tracking&Tracing International AG Dipl.

There are lots of UI changes it could take, but as it is, it is the only pg gui I use. --elein elein@varlena.com
