Hello,

Allow me to resend my previous email as stated on the local user groups
page that we should let you know our willingness.

Regarding our request, we organized a small conference for Madagascar
PostgreSQL Users Group last 14th of September 2024 in Antananarivo,
Madagascar. It had 23 attendees with 4 speakers, all talking about
PostgreSQL in their companies.

Before doing this (small) conference, we requested guidance from Henrietta
and Valeria (Both cc'd).

Now, we are reaching out to request officially the addition of our group to
the official page PostgreSQL User Groups website on the
https://www.postgresql.org/community/user-groups/ . As we firmly believe
that we comply with the community requirements.

Please find our group here https://www.facebook.com/groups/mgpug

For our next activities, we plan to share Postgres recordings for our
community monthly in order to educate users about PostgreSQL and its
extensions.

We are looking forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely,

Baovola
Initiator of MG-PUG

Dear PostgreSQL Community,

On behalf of my colleague in Madagascar, allow me to write to you
this email.

I am Baovola and I live in Antananarivo Madagascar.

After several years of using PostgreSQL, my colleagues and I would like to
create a PostgreSQL User Groups in our country, in order to promote the use
of this amazing tool and also to share experiences with each other.

What we have done so far is creating a survey for our first mini conference
in the week of 9th september. 85 people are answering our survey questions
and we got around 10 people as speakers.

What we plan to do are :
- meeting with co-organisators
- sending email to all speakers to ask for summary of their  future talks
- creating a meeting group (which need financial support)
- at the same time, searching for local to host the event
- and eventually calling for collaboration with universities which teach
PostgreSQL

We would really appreciate it if you could help us to set up our local
community.

Of course, we have read the code of conduct.

We are always open with further details.

Yours sincerely,

Baovola
Initiator of PostgreSQL User Groups in Madagascar
