MC Triangle PUG

От

Greetings,

During some discussions at Postrgres Open this week, a number of us
thought it would be a good idea to start (or is it revive) a PUG for the
NC Triangle (that's the Raleigh / Durham / Chapel Hill area for those of
you who don't live here :-) ). I understand that the first thing to kick
this off is a note to the advocacy mailing list, which is what I'm doing
here. If we get enough momentum, monthly meetings with a speaker and
refreshments would be a great goal. A longer term goal might be a
conference day - I don't think there is one held in the whole of the
SouthEast.

If people want to discuss, I'm currently sitting on an irc channel
called #trianglepug on Freenode. Offers of resources will be gratefully
received, I'm sure.

cheers

andrew

Of course, I fat fingered to original subject. *sigh*

Glad to see the kickoff!  I would recommend starting a Meetup group on meetup.com to help organize the monthly events.
Doyou already have a mailing list or do you need one created?  The two avenues people are using are either using the
oneMeetup provides or having someone on the pg_infra team set one up.  Once you have a mailing list, I can add the NC
Trianglepug to our community list. 

Thanks,

Jonathan

Are there community funds available to cover the meetup.com fees?  As I recall a meetup.com organizer membership is in the range of $12 a month (which I think allows up to 3 groups).

Hmmm.  I wonder if we can set up a 2nd group out of the SFPUG account.
Fetter?

Andrew,

Also, you already have your own song!

"Triangle PUG, Triangle PUG,
 Doing the things a triangle can.
 What's it like?  It's not important.
 Triangle PUG!"

I think it would be better to have PG.US support NC Triangle PUG directly, given the framework that has been put in
placeto support individual PUGs.

OK. Let's get a PG hosted mailing list going. How do we go about setting
up the meetup stuff? Just do it and then bill PG.US?

Do we provide web space to PUGs?

Supposedly either SFPUG or PG.US can add you to their existing accounts
somehow.

Not at present, no.

I think it would be worth maintaining a page on postgresql.org that links to the meetup pages (or other pages).

How about I submit a diff with that in it to the pgweb repo?
