Looking over the user group and regional lists, I feel like we need a new category. Here's what I propose: User Groups * organizing face-to-face meetings, local advocacy. generally highly-local discussion that is a mix of technical/non-technical Regional Organization * larger geographic area, non-profit groups, primarily non-technical discussion Language-specific lists * These follow the model of pgsql-general - providing technical support and referrals in a specific language: pgsql-es-ayuda, pgsql-fr-generale and the Persian list *seem* to follow this model. Alvarro could speak for pgsql-es-ayuda. I *think* pgsql-it-generale also falls in that category. Gabriele? Does that division sit well with people? I can offer a patch later on today for the pages and sidebars. -selena -- Selena Deckelmann PDXPUG - Portland PostgreSQL Users Group http://pugs.postgresql.org/pdx http://www.chesnok.com/daily
