Folks,

As promised, I'm calling the 8.1 press release "final". Lots of people
have had a crack at it; it's time to send it to the translators.

So if you were holding something back, you have a matter of hours to
comment on it.

I still can't get cvs to work properly for me with pgfoundry, so
here's my quick notes:

* There appears to be a stray character after the words
"Improved Multiprocessor (SMP) Performance:"

* I still think a comma looks better after "dual-core" :)

* More funny characters after "<link here>."

* Perhaps make "About PostgreSQL" its own section, like the others?:

About PostgreSQL

Other than that, looks great!

Really? What's the issue? Come over to #postgresql on irc.freenode.net
and we'll troubleshoot.

Thanks for edits, fixed.

Samer,

All right, I don't think we have Arabic.

Is there an Arabic nationalization of the code?

Josh,

> CMD will pay to prweb this if you like.

Sure, although I find that it's not neccessary to pay more than about $10
to move up in the queue.

Just depends on where is the queue you want to be released :). We
typically drop 150-250.00

what do you mean by Arabic nationalization of the code?

Members of pgsql advocacy,

I just joined Command Prompt, I’d like to introduce myself and offer my
services to the group. I have mostly been in sales, business
development, and marketing roles in my past lives. I am technical in
that I was an engineer, once, but a mere featherweight compared to most
of the members of this group.

I am new to posting on forums so please forgive me and periodically tap
me on the shoulder as I stumble my way through this. I am however no
stranger to software, databases, applications and development tools
having been in the software industry for over 17 years now (and having
“done time” at Oracle, Rational Pure-Atria, and Andersen Consulting).

Seems I am a bit late to get into the action here for this press
release, but I do have some suggestions for the About PostgreSQL
paragraphs that I would like to share with the group for possible future
use (see below).

Please do not hesitate to reach out to me if there are issues / projects
where I can provide input and value. I will try to chime in periodically
as I get myself settled here at Command Prompt.

I look forward to meeting you all at the next major pizza and beer bash
… and we’ll bill it all to Joshua ;-)
