Hi everyone,

I'm sorry for that long inactivity period: life happened.

So, I met several members of Postgres Women at Brussels (FOSDEM) and we
discussed an idea
I particularly love: Having funds for women to be able to speak at conf
talk events or to
simply come as attendees to conf talk events (I'd rather these funds to be
used to pay for
speaker accommodation, though).

There are two ways to take care of that kind of a foundation :
- Either we manage the money and to do so we need to create an association
(with elected board and so on) (option 1)
- Either we use PostgreSQL Europe (and PostgreSQL US) and ask them to
create a budget for diversity and manage the money for us (option 2)
- Or you can always say it's a bad idea (option 3)
- Or that you don't care (option 4)

You can vote here: https://goo.gl/forms/BeqRz7MHcFVrmY713

Vote will be open until the 28th of February, 23:59, CET.

Cheers,

Lætitia
