Count me as both intrigued and interest. 

Josh and others may know my fee= lings=E2=80=A6 The Postgres tutorial needs to be entirely blown up. There= 's a great set of reference docs, but in terms of getting started its qui= te painful.

I think this would be a terrific opportunity for us to= finally put
together a really comprehensive, high-quality Post= greSQL Newbie
Tutorial. I'd be willing to devote a couple days= of my time to that,
and contribute some of our corporate train= ing materials.

However, I can only do it if 4 ot= her people want to do it too.

The event is Octob= er 16-18, right before the GSOC Summit; if we get
accepted, foo= d & accomodations are paid for, and I can make a good case
= to pay for any airfare costs out of community funds.
