Обсуждение: Russian PostgreSQL community site

Hello All.

Would be help me to put Russian PostgreSQL community site URL to
http://www.postgresql.org/community/international page?
About half year ago, I opened http://postgresql.ru.net.
At this moment, we have ~ 300 registered users, forum and some documentation.
It is possible, this is not really large, but I hope we'll go up.
(Perhaps, anybody remembers my old resource at
http://www.linuxshare.ru/postgresql. Currently, it is redirected to
http://postgresql.ru.net).

With best wishes,

Unfortunately, conversations about Russian PostgreSQL community site
were starting long time ago (before Nikolay, some years ago).
But, I don't see something besides discussions. :(  (I'm sorry for such words)
May be, I don't know about some sites, but I not found some Russian
site about PostgreSQL at least with similar functionality as our site.
I would not come here asking if out site is not ALREADY exists.
I would not come here asking if some Russian site was already
presented at http://www.postgresql.org/community/international
I hold in high respect Nikolay, but at this moment, I don't see his
results in this direction.

Hello Nikolay.

> community does not exist or not working.
It is true, but read below.

> Starting from 2007, here in Russia the solid group of PostgreSQL
Nikolay, it is really interesting, but where is group's site?
Where is group's forum?
What are problems solving the group at this moment?
I have no such info.
Try to search "PostgreSQL документация" at Yandex or Google.
Go to http://www.postgresql.org/community/international
There are you? I don't see. Many and many people didn't see too.

Postgresmen site is a commercial company site for business not for community.
linux.org.ru is news site with stupid threads about this news
opennet.ru is a good cooking book with good search, but nothing more

> The community site is under

Under construction starting from 2007? :) It is great!

> people from different organizations to work on promoting PostgreSQL in
> Russia, to communicate and to work together.
Yes, it's true. But in my mind, this communication into little closed world.
I appreciate efforts of Russian PostgreSQL developers, but with great
disappointment I see that Russian PostgreSQL community is greatly inferior to
MySQL community and many other. We have no Russian manual, we have
no well-known community site, we have no big well-known forum etc.

Nikolay, how many times we'll be talking? May be, we must already DO
something in this direction? I MADE first steps. What you answer?
