Re: [pgsql-advocacy] Setting up for Press Contacts in SEAsia

["Benjamin Scherrey" <scherrey(at)proteus-tech(dot)com>]

Robert,

    Please forward any emails to myself @ scherrey(at)proteus-tech(dot)com . Regarding Chinese, do we distinguish between language and region? I noticed the link to the Chinese translation of the 
8.2 press release is missing. But if someone else normally does that all the better - we can re-use it. But my interest is in contacting the Singapore and Malaysian/Chinese technical media with these releases. So we need to add sg@ for Singapore unless we have someone else there already.

    thanx,

I think the 8.3 versions are enough, since we will probably release within the
next couple weeks.

Yep. Might as well try and do them all, but no need to wait untill they are
all done to start shipping back the content for the website.

Marc can set those up for you. Note we already have a chinese press contact,
you might want to drop him a line to see if you can coordinate. For Thai,
Malay, and Indonesia, I guess those would be th@, my@, and id@ right? Which
email(emails?) should those forward to?
