New Shipment of Elephant Pins

От

Дата:
I have a new shipment of Elephant Pins coming in today or tomorrow.
As I did before, Varlena, LLC will foot the bill and the pins will be free.

If anyone chooses to sell the pins after receiving them, I strongly
encourage you to donate the proceeds to SPI for Postgres.

People local to me (East Bay Area, CA) can arrange to pick up pins
from me directly.  Others can request that I send them to you.

This means any PUGS, Conferences, individuals, etc, (although
I do not really like to send onesies).  I recommend someone get
some pins for each conference.

Feel free to send me a souvenier, stamps, or something tiny small to amuse
me while I send out pins. :)  Send me email with your address and the
number of pins that you'd like and I'll send you my address.

Elephant Pins are brought to you by Varlena, LLC.

Cheers,

Elein, great!

    I've been doing some confs at Buenos Aires and I always suffer the
no-stuff symptom. One friend o'mine is currently at San Francisco for
a few days more, chances to get a few of these pins? He will bring
them to Buenos Aires, Argentina and I will use them in the next open
source conf.

   If you happen to find this useful, I would appreciate an address
where to pick them up.

Thanks in advance!

Yours,
Guido Barosio

Nice. Can someone carry some of this pins to europe, Brussels (FOSDEM)¹?
It would be nice, because the european PG-Group has there a dev-room,
together with the BSD team, and March 1+2 the german PG-Group a booth in
Chemnitz (germany, Linux-Days)²

² http://chemnitzer.linux-tage.de/2008/live/detail.html?idx=58 (german)

Andreas 'ads' Scherbaum will be on both events, but he is at the present
time on honeymoon...

Finally there will be an event in Prague³...

³ http://www.dbsvet.cz/view.php?cisloclanku=2008011101

but i don't know how to carry the Pins to Prague, maybe some people from
Prague are in Bruessels, i don't know.




Thx in advance, dear Elein and all others.

At this time I am planning to go to OSCON since I'm on the program
committee.  But I have no talks or tutorials planned.  I'll just
bring pins and help with the booth.
