***** Call for Papers *****
Starting today, the "call for papers" is open, so if you'd like to
present something interesing and relevant at the conference, send us
some basic info at info@p2d2.cz. Especially we need this:
* contact info (name, phone, company)
* topic of the session (abstract, what is the goal, etc.)
* expected length (usually 40 minutes)
This is a developer conference, so we're interested mostly in session
from the user/developer point of view. Let us list several interesting
aread just for inspiration:
* new, unique and unconventional ways how to use PostgreSQL
* migrating production systems to PostgreSQL
* DWH systems based on PostgreSQL
* hacking PostgreSQL code
* problems when deploying PostgreSQL
* other open source databases (Firebird, MySQL, ...)
But this list definitely is not comprehensive, there are many other
interesting topics.
We're looking for two english-speaking guest, the other talks will be in
czech language. We're going to cover travel and hotel expenses up to
about 500 EUR (should be enough for 2 nights in a hotel and air ticket
from Europe).

schedule will be announced till January 13 (and the registration will
open at the same time).
