That's right folks, the PostgreSQL Conference East has listed 98% of its talks. We have a lot of great talks, mini-tutorials and trainings.
A simple agenda follows:
Trainings range from 199.00 to 349.00 depending on half or full day.
The registration is 249.00
In particular I am interested to see how Four Square is using MongoDB and PostgreSQL to compliment each other.
I also want to give a shout out to all of our very gracious sponsors. This has been a banner year for supporting the conference. It is great to see how we are growing!

Alright slackers, you know who you are. The constant presence at every conference. The speaker, that submits their talk at 11:59PM before the CFP closes, I am talking to YOU! In three days, the CFP for what is going to be the largest PostgreSQL Conference in the Western World to date (I say Western because JPUG kicks U.S. butt in attendance just at their user meetings alone), is going to close.
We will then start an accelerated process to approve those worthy!
Perhaps you are not one of those I speak of, you are not a slacker. You are just a person who would like to speak but you are not sure if you have a decent topic to speak on. If that is the case, email me:
jd < at > commandprompt < . > comI will be happy to help you.
Perhaps you have never spoke before. If you haven't, the PostgreSQL Conference is a great place to start. We are a friendly community that is helpful. Let us be your first jump into the world of conference speaking!
No matter your reason, now is the time to get those talks in!

I was surprised at first too but I have been talking to quite a few community members for MongoDB and due to the positive responses, PostgreSQL Conference East is going to be host to the excellent MongoDB community.
JD, Why would you do this? Why do we care? We are relational, they -- well I don't know what they are.
One of the goals of The PostgreSQL Conference Series is the expand the knowledge of the community and to extend a hand to secondary communities, inviting them learn, collaborate and drink with us. By inviting MongoDB, we are doing exactly that. It is my sincerest hope that we can get a lot of the MongoDB users to better understand our ways, as cranky and old-school as they may be and in return, we will learn some of their ways, perhaps making PostgreSQL even better.
Consider, what if our upcoming SQL/MED support in 9.1 had a foreign data wrapper that was optimized for MongoDB?
Remember folks, CFP is still open
And of course, many thanks to the PostgreSQL Conference Sponsors:
