[osdldbt-general] Re: PostgreSQL and OSDL Database Tests

[Justin C. <ju...@po...>]

Hi guys,

I'd like to add an item to the front of the PostgreSQL site about this, 
asking for further participants.

Haven't yet drafted anything yet, so does anyone have ideas what it 
should say in order to attract the maximum number of participants?

We should also include Satoshi Nagayasu <sn...@sn...> in this, as 
he's part of the Japanese PostgreSQL Users group and from memory has 
already been looking into the benchmarks.

Regards and best wishes,

Justin Clift
