Everything started when David Fetter suggested that we could organize small meetings during FISL 7.0 (2006). The idea stayed in our schedule but had low priority; at that time we were organizing the first national PostgreSQL (PGCon Brasil). After two national conferences, we were discussing about where would be the 2010 conference (the next one will be in Campinas, SP again) and someone (Fernando Ike) had a brilliant idea that we will take the conclusions after seeing the results of the regional PGDays.

We started organizing the PGDays. The first one was in Brasília (PGDay-DF), the second one in São Paulo (PGDay-SP), the third one in two cities (Porto Velho and Ji-Paraná) in Rondônia (PGDay-RO) and the last one in Porto Alegre (PGDay-RS). And it will be another one in Florianópolis (PGDay-SC). I had the oportunity to be in all of them until now but I will not go to PGDay-SC because I'm heading to PGCon. There are some rumors of PGDays in Rio de Janeiro (RJ), Belo Horizonte (MG), Curitiba (PR), and Fortaleza (CE).

In my humble opinion, all of them rocked. ;) I liked to meet old friends (DF and SP), new friends (RO and RS) and places (RO), and heard new-potential-pgcon-speakers (who knows?). I posted some pics in my album.

Kudos for all of the organizers!

Stay tuned about new events.
