I'm the new guy on the block for doing case studies. Right now I have a list half a dozen companies to do case studies on. I would suggest that Luis give me business links to his company and some contact names then we can start scheduling things from there.

hi Bruce
My name is Luis Forte, live in Lisbon, Portugal, and work at PTelecom,
a telecom operator in this country (the largest operator, but that's
just a minor fact).
I'm the technical manager at one of our call-centers. We operate with
Oracle, though at least one of the components of the Telecom Inteligent
Network (IN) use Postgres.
Out of job I work with, and prefer, Postgres. Some years ago I used
Mysql, but Postgres maturity fascinated me two years ago: I've been
using it, and love it.
I'd like to help:
by marketing the software, translating if necessary or any other kind
of support.
I'll be pleased to help !
We have a documentation mailing list, and I think we have some Portugese
support material. I think it is listed on the web site.
I will CC this message to our advocacy list in case they have some
ideas.
Can we coordinate a case study of how and why PTelecom uses postgresql,
especially contrasted with it's use of oracle?
If you'd like to do some legwork, the standard things to translate
include back end files, FAQ, and advocacy website. I think those might
all be covered but if you find one that isn't or needs updating then
please jump in. After that I usually suggest helping translate pgAdmin
and phpPgAdmin, though I think they both might already have Portuguese
covered.
