Hi, As main maintainer of PostgreSQL-SDBC, the native driver for LibreOffice to connect to a PostgreSQL database server which is going to be bundled with LibreOffice 3.5, I'm putting myself as "manager" of the "The Document Foundation" organisation on the postgresql.org website and related resources.
This is your opportunity to veto me in that position should you wish, but then please appoint another person. You can also adjoin me another manager: create an account at https://www.postgresql.org/account/ for that person. I filled in the form as follows: Name: The Document Foundation Address: (left blank) URL: http://www.documentfoundation.org/ email: [email protected] Organisation Type: Open Source Project (other choices: Individual, Not for profit, Company) Current manager(s): lmamane (myself) Organisation type "Not for profit" might be technically more accurate, but I see us as so strongly linked to the LibreOffice "Open Source Project" that I equate both. The power this position grants me and/or the person you choose is: post / modify / update (as the case may be) News, Events, Products and Professional Services to the postgresql.org website in the name of The Document Foundation, subject to approval by PostgreSQL moderators. A "product" is an entry into one of the categories in http://www.postgresql.org/download/product-categories/ My primary intent (and the reason I start this whole shebang) is to list PostgreSQL-SDBC properly in http://www.postgresql.org/download/products/2-drivers-and-interfaces/ A "news" is, I *think*, an item that gets placed in PosgreSQL's "weekly news" column http://www.postgresql.org/community/weeklynews/ and/or ends up posted the [email protected] mailing list. Maybe when 3.5 comes out, we push an announcement there, whose core would be "LibreOffice now has native PostgreSQL support out of the box"? I don't want to write that announcement on my own, so when the time is right, I'll look into it with our press / propaganda / publicity / ... team (I assume we have one). An "event" is a entry in the listing at http://www.postgresql.org/about/eventarchive/ I do not foresee us having an event relevant to announce to the PostgreSQL community at large. A "professional service" is an entry into http://www.postgresql.org/support/professional_support/ I do not foresee us offering PostgreSQL-related professional services (!). -- Lionel -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/board-discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
