Just a friendly reminder that if you are interested in submitting a
quote, you still have time, but the submission deadline is rapidly
approaching (September 7, 2018).

If you would like to see where your quote would be featured, have a look
at the draft of the PostgreSQL 11 press release[1].

If you would like to submit a quote, please send the following to
[email protected]:

    * Your Name
    * Your Organization
    * A 1-3 sentence quote that highlights your usage of PostgreSQL (see
quote placeholders in press release), or how PostgreSQL has helped you
scale / save / develop more rapidly.

Thanks!

Jonathan
