Hi all,
a 2¢ contrib :

f) CTO oriented papers ?
«this one intends to highlight PostgreSQL interests from different point
of view (ROI, technical, infrastructure, business/SW editors)»

g) Success stories with PostgreSQL (link with the webapp reference/case
studies ?)
Think (also) about regional targetted success stories. For my own point
of view, relaying that a french institution publically and successfully
uses PG is a better argument than Fujitsu's sponsorship. Success stories
are collected by local PUGs but could be relayed to an broader place ?
There's more hits from france on pg.org than on pg.fr (well I
gess...) ;) I my thoughts the avereage guy might be interested in
knowing « which business, which institudion uses PostgreSQL in my
area ?».

Sorry if out of scope ...
