Two questions about existing sponsors

От

All,

1) Why is this company on sponsors?  Who works for them?
Conova: http://www.conova.com/

2) Shouldn't NTT-Data be on here?  Several PostgreSQL hackers work for NTT.

If they do, they should. Just get us an icon to stick in there :-)

Stefan Kaltenbrunner. They donated the largest dedicated server we
currently have to replace the one we used to have from Pervasive. It's
not currently live as I'm waiting for Marc to finish off some work on it
first.

Full time hackers? (iirc, that was the criteria we originally agreed
on). Who are they?  Also bear in mind that NTT Comware is not the same
as NTT Data for example, so we need to be sure what part of NTT people
are actually from before we add them.

Regards, Dave.

I work for them - Dave added us for providing a .eu based server to the
project (tribble - see last entry on
http://www.postgresql.org/about/servers)

Shouldn't they be in /about/servers then?   That would make them the only
server sponsor on the /about/sponsors page.

Ah, good point.  I know that Satoshi works for NTT-Data, but I'm not sure
about the rest of the NTT people.  I'll ask him.

We've always classed server providers as sponsors. EHPG for example.

Hmmm, you're right, it is rather muddy.  OK, save it until we redo the
sponsors page, when we'll separate them out.

Actually, I talked to Satoshi today and there are actually *three* different
NTT companies working on PostgreSQL.  He suggested that we just credit "the
NTT Group": http://www.ntt.co.jp/img/logo_nttg_e.gif
