pgCon 2013 Unconference Day
The PostgreSQL Community is having our first Unconference Day at pgCon 2013 in Ottawa! This event, sponsored by Salesforce.com, extends pgCon and gives us additional opportunities to share, collaborate, and discuss about PostgreSQL development, hacking, usage, and community.
For more about unconference days and why we're doing this, see the Unconference Day FAQ.
If you are interested in holding a session, or you want someone else to do a session on a particular topic on the Unconference day, please add your proposal to "session ideas" below.

How Sessions are Selected
No predetermined schedule is set for the Unconference Day beforehand. Instead, participants in the Unconference bring their ideas, demands, wishlists and discussion topics, and propose sessions at 10am. Anyone can lead a session. Sessions are accepted by acclaim, and scheduled collaboratively in the first period from 10am to 11am.
In order to get things started quickly on the Unconference Day, participants are encouraged to post session ideas on the wiki, below, before the unconference actually starts.

PostgreSQL.org Testing Brainstorming
Proposed By: Josh Berkus
Session Type: Open Discussion
Description: the regression tests and the Buildfarm don't cover anywhere near all the kinds, or scope, of testing we want to do with Postgres, especially during the Beta Testing period. What other kinds of testing could we be doing? How can we increase test coverage? How can we get new contributors involved in testing?
