How would it work? Set up a new pgfoundry project, which would then automatically also have a mailing list where people can subscribe? Erik Rijkers

It also gives you the ability to have a store for sample databases, examples, code etc.. Joshua D. Drake > > > Erik Rijkers > > > >
Erik, all: The main efforts in the realm of Bio Postgres would be the BLASTGres project and UnisonDB. Neither of these project seem to even *have* a mailing list; in fact, BLASTgres seems to have stalled, probably because of the original students graduating. However, there is the existing pgFoundry project BioPostgres. This seems to be idle right now; if you want me to, I can contact the original admins, check status, and maybe make you admin and add a mailing list. http://sourceforge.net/projects/blastgres/ http://phenomics.cs.ucla.edu/BLASTgres/ http://unison-db.org/ http://pgfoundry.org/projects/biopostgres -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL San Francisco

You might see if one or more of the lists hosted by the GMOD project would work for you. I know that CHADO (a GMOD project), in particular, works well with PostgreSQL... In fact, we may offer CHADO/GMOD related training before too long... GMOD is a very active project... -- Chander Ganesan Open Technology Group, Inc.
