In this case, I wanted photos from the conferences; particularly the  
group photos. Luckily, Flicr and Berkus came to the rescue there.

But we should also keep things like presentations and what-not  
available. I know conferences have their own websites, but ISTM we  
should at least link to them from somewhere on PostgreSQL.org.

The other thing I wanted was general advocacy items, such as graphics  
I could use. Likewise, it would be good to have a single collection  
of advocacy presentations that are available for use.
