I know of no one in Austin who knows more about Postgres than Decibel. For quite a while, he has been threatening to start a Postgres user group. He’s finally done it. Here is the scoop:
Event: Austin Postgres User’s Group - First Meeting
Date: Tuesday, May 6th at 6PM-8PM
Location Sun Microsystems (Map)
Building 8 - Longhorn Conference Room

The rough agenda will be:
6:00 - 6:30 Meet ‘n greet
6:30 - 7:15 Discuss goals for the AustinPUG
7:15 - 7:45 Presentation: What’s new it 8.3?
7:45 - 8:00 Wrap-up
Everyone who is attending will have to register as a visitor; to make this as efficient as possible, please RSVP to austinpug@decibel.org. There will be free Pizza from Mangia’s. When you register, please specify pizza preference: spinach, pepperoni, or Chicago style, etc.

The real question is will they call it AustinPUG or AustinPIG? I was at LinuxFest NW last weekend and was talking to someone from the PortlandPUG and we both got confused when we realized I was talking about the Python User Group and she was talking about the PostgreSQL User Group. They called the Python users Python Interest Group. And there’s already an Austin Python Users Group.
