We announced a new conference committee for next year&#8217;s conference, and said we&#8217;d do it again in September in Chicago!  That group is just getting started now, and will have some announcements for everyone in the coming weeks. <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m going to be busy with a new job at <a href=\"http:\/\/mozilla.com\">Mozilla<\/a> starting Monday, working on databases with the WebTools team. <\/p>\n<p>Another small change is: I&#8217;m writing a few times a day to <a href=\"http:\/\/tumblr.chesnok.com\">my tumblr<\/a> and I&#8217;ve just stopped using twitter for the next few weeks. In the last day, I have really only thought about one or two things to share that would have been more than fleetingly useful. As I come across things, I&#8217;ll be sending them to the tumblr instead. <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m also looking for patches and projects to work on for Postgres itself. During Thursday&#8217;s code sprint, I picked up an <a href=\"https:\/\/commitfest.postgresql.org\/action\/patch_view?id=943\">old patch for config directories<\/a>, and today I spent some time re-generating a list of contributor names for the last 5 major versions of Postgres.<\/p>\n<p>As usual, I feel so energized from hanging out with my favorite Postgres people. I&#8217;m only sad that I won&#8217;t see most of them in person again until next year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last week in Chicago was amazing! 37 speakers, an incredible keynote by Jacob Kaplan-Moss (video coming soon!) and re-connecting with all the great people in Chicago.
