Just looking at upcoming events and I notice that this event:
http://www.postgresql.org/about/event.699
Seems to be a conference, not a training event. Might it get more
visibility if its listed in events - which gets front page visibility,
as opposed to training? Or perhaps cross listing it in both places...

Agreed. I've flipped the training flag off.

Dave, Chander, all,
It is actually a small workshop guys, taking place in the hugest Open
Source event @ Argentina, which is not a training course but indeed a
conference that promotes training events in the same place in order to help
starters. So this one is a training event, kinda install fest for postgreqsl
newbies, as far as I know, and that is why I approved the post.
I've been in contact with the author of the post, I don't know him, but
we've already started thinking about advocacy tasks, prolly with a booth.
I suggest to rollback the flip-off ;-)
Best wishes,
gb.-

Seems like, since its free, and its at a conference, it might be better
served as an event though. It will get more visibility that way.... A
great example along the same lines are free Webinars that many vendors
offer...I've seen those categorized as events as well...

Chander, thanks for your input!
Indeed, it's free (yay!), and it takes place at an event of a few days.
But again, IMHO this is not an event but a training course, the format, the
contents and the intentions drive the qualification of the event as a
training event.
These are my thoughts on this matter and I may be wrong, feel free to
(irc) slap me with a smelly trout :)

When I logged in this morning (before I saw your post) it will still set
to training, I flipped it again and it stuck. Might be something to
watch for potential bug.
