Обсуждение: introduction
Hi all,
I've just subscribed to this mailing list, so I thought it would be nice to introduce myself.
I'm Bert Desmet, and I currently live in Belgium.
I work for Deloitte, where we are building a cloud BI platform. As a database for the datawarehouses we use PostgreSQL since a few months. Before that time we were using db2. Next to THE dba (yes, it's only for the moment), I'm also playing with the linux servers, and I do code a bit. Mostly in Python or bash.
I used to do community work for the fedora project, but since I changed from a contributor to a normal user I decided to pick up a new challenge: coding. I've just subscribed to this mailing list, so I thought it would be nice to introduce myself.

There you'll see that we have a TODO list [2] that could be a start point to code, but IMHO a better start point is reviewing another's code, you can find some information about that in [3]. Another place is the IRC channel #postgresql on irc.freenode.net where you can find Postgres users and developers chatting.

Obviously you need to get up to speed first before you can fully contribute here, but you will find a lot of encouragement to start doing so. Cheers, Gavin
