Обсуждение: Where should I post 3rd party product announcements?

Hello,

I am the author of a database replication solution to which I recently
added Postgres support. I would like to let the PG community know about
it and I therefore posted a message to this list, but it didn't come
through, presumably because it was considered to be spam.

Where would be a more appropriate place to make such an announcement?

Best regards,
Jonathan Neve

Take a look at this page:

http://www.postgresql.org/list/

pgsql-announce is the list you are looking for.

Hello Amit,

I tried pg-announce as well, but my message didn't go through…

Not having seen the actual post, it may have been moderated based on
the rules at https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/NewsEventsApproval.
These are primarily for website news postings - but a website news
postign is really what you should do with it, rather than post it to a
mailinglist. So I suggest a look at those rules and then a website
news submission that follows them.

Sorry for being a bit dense, but where should I submit a website news
posting ?

It's on http://www.postgresql.org/, click the link that says "Submit news".

The message is not in the moderation queue, so it must have been flagged
as spam.  Without having seen it, a priori I don't think it's completely
inappropriate for pgsql-announce, though.
