Обсуждение: PUG Listing?
WWW, Since pugs.postgresql.org is long gone, I'd like to have a page on www.postgresql.org which just lists the user groups like this: region country area PUG web page mailing list e.g.: Americas USA San Francisco SFPUG http://www.meetup.com/postgresql-1/ http://archives.postgresql.org/sfpug/ This seems like a good job for a basic Django app, editable through Admin. There's low churn on the data, so it shouldn't be much trouble to maintain. If people approve of this idea, I'll start tinkering with it on a fork. It would also be a reasonable thing for the wiki, EXCEPT that our wiki pages have a Google search rank of approximately zero, so putting anything like this on the wiki is a guarantee that nobody looking for it will find it. -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com

+1 for having this list on the site
If we go the website route, Selena and I had started code for the new site pugs site, perhaps some of this code could be reused: http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=pgpugs.git;a=summary
I'm not sure if this is possible with the wiki, but an alternative idea is we do use a wiki page, but have the output embedded onto the main postgres webiste. Or possibly have a link off of the main postgres website e.g. http://www.postgressql.org/community/pugs that does a permanent redirect to the wiki.

Just looked at the code - listing the pugs by geographical region was done(-ish, really needed a couple of more lines) andit looks like it could include posts from the PUG blogs. You could edit what pugs were visible in the list from the Djangoadmin that was setup. The functionality from this code rewrite was to mirror the old PUG site. Getting the pug list done would be minimal work. Unless we plan on relaunching the pugs.postgresql.org site, It would probablybe a better endeavor to take the data models, simplify them slightly, and put them into the main -www codebase, aswell as the listing code.

Yeah, I guess the question is: is there any value in having a blog listing for all the PUGs? I know that SFPUG wasn't using ours because it was Just Another Darned Place To Post Things. However, other PUGs may have felt differently. -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com

Unless we plan on relaunching the pugs.postgresql.org site, It wouldprobably be a better endeavor to take the data models, simplify them slightly, and put them into the main -www codebase,as well as the listing code. I would suggest going with whatever is the simplest. At least starting there. Once we've proven to ourselves that we have the manpower to maintain that, we can start considering doing something more advanced. Thus, +1 for a simple pugs listing/app on the main website. We already have planet to aggregate blogs, and there are a bazillion different sites out there that can host your personal blog for you. -- Magnus HaganderMe: http://www.hagander.net/Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/

So by "app" is it safe to assume "Django app within pgweb" as opposed to a separate project? If that is the case, I canmove over the appropriate code relatively quickly. Jonathan
