Hi guys,

I'll try to keep this short and sweet.

I'm the PostgreSQL Business Intelligence Analyst at SRA America, http://sraapowergres.com. We're an opensource service and support company for PostgreSQL and the BSDs.

As you know, much of the commercial activity going on with FreeBSD and postgres, when compared to the likes of Linux and MySQL, is just simply not on the business awareness radar. To that end we're trying to rememdy this by networking with usergroups, such as nycbug.org, and participating on various mail-lists. We're also working with a number of FreeBSD advocates that includes the likes of Dru Lavigne, communities (postgresql.org) and opensource initiatives (bsdcertification.org) to create standards compliant courseware.

We've tied postgres and bsd together for two simple reasons:

1. More than a few of the postgres community (especially CORE) are BSD users.

2. The BSD community is mature with top developers but has a very small business support/marketing infrastructure.

These grass roots projects have a common heritage that by their very nature precludes domination by any one corporation. I'd like to think that I'm not the only one when I say that all I want to do is earn money by doing what I enjoy.

Comments?

thanks
