German version of the PostgreSQL "Advocacy and Marketing" site is ready
Hi everyone,
Thanks to Cornelia Boenigk <poppcorn@cornelia-boenigk.de> and Michael
Paesold <mpaesold@gmx.at>, the German translation of the PostgreSQL
"Advocacy and Marketing" site, is now completed and ready for public
use:
http://advocacy.postgresql.org/?lang=de
This makes 5 languages done, with Brazilian Portuguese and Spanish
nearly ready too.
:-)
Regards and best wishes,
Justin Clift

Folks,
FLYER: I can start work on the flyer next week sometime. Should I just use
the text from the website? Does anyone have any ideas for graphics? Are we
looking for a 1-page, 2-page, 4-page flyer or 3-fold brochure?
7.3 PRESS RELEASE: Postgres 7.3 will be coming out soon. We should do a
press release; I even have a press list of tech press we can e-mail it to.
But I think we should start on wording now, so that we can have it nailed
down and translated the day that 7.3 is ready.
I'm sure that Justin has already thought of this, but one of the reasons that
MySQL is so much higher profile than us is press releases. They get press
milage out of announcing "enhancements" which we have had for years. Time to
turn that around ...

Apart from that, I think we need to post HOWTO's which can enable one to start
using database in less than 5 minutes. Getting this HOWTO to as many people as
possible, would let them know how easy it is to start using postgresql..
