Life after PGCon2008...

PGCon 2008 was awesome!!! I could meet a lot of people from postgresql community and take a lot of pictures!! I even got a picture with Tom Lane! Thank you very much, Selena! :)

I finally could meet Dave Page in person. Dave has helped Npgsql project in the beginning, 2002 and we never have met before!

I also could meet Magnus Hagander in person. He is a very nice person. I saw some of his talks and was very good!

I also could meet Hiroshi Saito and Josh Cooley. Hiroshi Saito is a big evangelist of Npgsql in Japan and has done a great work to talk to others about Npgsql there. Josh Cooley has been working on Npgsql adding nice features, like System.Transactions and entity framework support, and fixing bugs. I enjoyed very much to meet them and doing the presentation. Our presentation was very nice considering this was my first time doing a presentation in english. Josh said my english was good, so I was ok. Thank you Josh!

Another person I enjoyed very much to talk to was Selena. She is very nice. She makes me remember of Brazilian girls because she is very active and has very strong energy. She even talked about my twitter and so this explains why suddenly I started to be followed by some other people!! Selena, it was a great pleasure to meet you.

I'd like to thank Dan Langille for his support which allowed me to be here in Canada to attend this conference.

The unexpected thing which occur in this PGCon2008 was that Fernando Ike who was doing a presentation just before mine asked me to make a real time translation of his speech! So, just before I do my first talk in english I had to make my first real time translation! I must confess that I was very nervous but in the end everything was fine!

Well, that's it! I will add more later.

See you.....
