## AI overview

A personal report from FOSDEM describing a successful PostgreSQL booth, community meetings, and a well-received talk about an extension. The author plans a future article series about extensions for users and authors.

## Source excerpt

This year we were in the main building of the conference, and apparently the booth went very well, solding lots of PostgreSQL merchandise etc. I had the pleasure to once again meet with the community, but being there only 1 day I didn't spend as much time as I would have liked with some of the people there. In case you're wondering, my extension's talk went quite well, and several people were kind enough to tell me they appreciated it! There was video recording of it, so we will soon have proofs showing how bad it really was and how polite those people really are :)
