PostgreSQL 9.5 Release Preview...and more!

...and we're back!

It's been awhile since we've gathered in NYC to talk PostgreSQL, so instead of just one presentation, we're going to have two in one meetup, and still be out by 8:15 for some beverages.

Our first presentation will be given by Joshua D. Drake (aka "JD"), a longtime PostgreSQL contributor. Joshua has come back east from his homestate of Washington to talk about the upcoming PostgreSQL 9.5 release, in his own words. Below is a summary of Postgres(QL) in 10:

The Elephant continues to dominate and these are the 10 things you must know about it right now. We will discuss the features from 9.5 that you must have, features that are overlooked, external applications to make your life easier and the status of the community. This talk is an all encompassing love fest with technical status for the current and new community members but don't worry, I won't hold back. I will also speak about a few things the community still does stubbornly wrong.

We will announce our second presentation soon.

We are generously being hosted again by our friends at Gilt Groupe. Please make sure you fill out your full name for building security. We look forward to you kicking off the fall PostgreSQL meetups with us!
