Guys,
Jean-Paul wants a link on the main PUG page to the PostgreSQL French Community

Could you please add a link there to the french community of PostgreSQL in
France? We setted up a web site too, with a drupal system
at http://www.postgresqlfr.org

That is a community of PG users, we dont' meet and discusses physicaly yet,
may be one day, we're on irc: irc.freenode.net #postgresqlfr...
Is that a problem??

I think PUG implies physical meetings and such, and I don't think the
french community site falls into that category... we do have a link to
it from the main www page though.

I think we should err on the side of openess.
That is, we should not restrict the pugs based
on anything except that the organization is
a users group and its primary focus is PostgreSQL.

Agreed ... but, that does call into question what happens if a group in
French *does* start a "phyiscal get together" user group, and isn't
assocated with the 'web prescense only' one? Does one over-ride the
other?

Still we should err on the side of openness. So what if
there is one for all of France *and* one for Paris, say.
So what if there is more than one in SF.
The only requirement should be that it be a users group
and have as its primary focus PostgreSQL.
Let people arrange themselves how they will.

What would you do if 3 different French cities started independent
groups?

Valid question ... but, IMHO, if we are going to define (and I'm not
saying that we need to) a UG, the one thing that should be defined is
"region of coverage" ... having one UG say that its "for France" is, IMHO,
way way too broad. Never having been there myself, but even if based
centrally in Paris (semi-central to the country, no?), I can imagine it
the country is larger then a 1hr driving radius from there, no?
I think it would be redundant to have two in, say, San Francisco, but not
to have one in SF and one in Berkeley, for instance ...

I think this is way too micro-managed. Who has time for this stuff? Let the
users' groups declare themselves however they want.
I would *love* to have the problem of so many users' groups that they overlap.
May I point out that we currently have 3, and two have yet to have a meeting?

I agree with Josh. We can sort it out if and when there's actually a
conflict, but at the moment this argument seems pretty pointless.

I have to agree with Robert on this though ... a UG, at least what I think
is the defacto standard for it, is a group that gets together ... linking
to "PostgreSQL related web sites" is not for pug.postgresql.org, or, at
least, shouldn't be ... a 'Related Sites' link off of www.postgresql.org,
yes ...
I'm not so much worried about micro-managing, but there should be *some*
criteria for inclusion, and I think monthly, schedualed meetings should be
a big one ...

Great! How about willingness to be included? At this stage, that's
plenty.

Please pardon me while I add in a little reality check to this grand
plan. SF PostgreSQL Users' Group, far and away the largest to date,
has had one once every 2-3 months. According to this "criterion,"
there are no pugs at all right now, let alone three fledgling ones.

they at least have the intention of meeting in person, which I think is
what Mark was getting at.

Hmm... I thought the criteria was simple... it was a site for user
groups... the french community site isn't a user group, therefore it
doesnt belong in the list for users groups... but whatever, if you guys
feel like adding it go for it, and while you're at it you could probably
add all the other community sites listed on the main page as well.

Jean-Paul is also setting up a big PostgreSQL track for next February at
the same show I attended this year in Paris.
