The Traditional Closing Session
 Fujitsu is our platinum sponsor. Heroku and EDB, Enterprise DB are our gold sponsors. Salesforce is a big sponsor of the unconference. NTT have been a sponsor for a number of years, and they brought something in rather unique, and it's in these yellow bags. Some of you have seen them. Don't spoil it. Crunchy data are sponsoring the videos, which you'll be able to see later to be able to see the talks. You couldn't see because you were in the talk you really wanted to see. Second quadrant have been a sponsor for a number of years. PG experts are here with Stacey, who is my... keeps me alive. SRA, OSS, thank you. Citus Data, JCPB, IntelliRAD, they're looking for people in Montreal. PostgreSQL professional have brought some very interesting items for sale. Red Pill LIN Pro, you know, Magnus, I'm sorry. PostgreSQL Consulting, TurkSat, and NM. You've got to look at the website to find out what NM is. Anyone never heard of Adam Thompson before? He was in the opening session. Adam Thompson does a lot of help with the website and hotels. Jennifer Russell basically helps me out with all the travel and herder of cats. And Stacey does a lot of help too and a lot of different things. Oh. And we have Greg. Yeah, Greg, thank you. And Matthew, who's not here. Please thank Greg. He's been helping with the video. Airport. Anyone flying out Sunday 9am or so? Okay, no mind. PostgreSQL Open. Someone asked me to put this in here. Who? Okay, yep. Those guys. So, call for papers is open. Put your talks in now, hurry. Insert auction here. This is the fun part. And I have pictures because it's really hard to see these things down here. I have a notebook to set. Excuse me. These are a very unique item. Imported, especially from Japan. Do I hear any beds? We're going to start at $5. The chocolate basically is what they are. Chocolate. $5 here. Do I hear 10? Like chocolate mushrooms. This little bit here is cookies. This little bit is cookies. $5? $10? Yes. The question was, are they magic mushrooms? Yes, they're very magic. About that many. I'm going to guess about $15. What? Yeah. I'm sorry. For the people that have never been to the charity auction, we auction off anything and everything, including lost and found items. We once auctioned off a man's coat to himself for $45? $90. And he was happy to pay that too. Because the money goes to charity. The money goes to the auto-emission who do a lot of help with homelessness and drug rehab, et cetera. If you've walked down the market, you've walked by them. So we're at $15 for these chocolate treats. $15, who got the bid? Was it you? Who had the $15 bid? $15 from what? $20? $20 from Chris? $20 going once? Sold to Chris Brown. Thank you, Chris. You may not have the cash. You may not have the credit card, but we can arrange something. We take PayPal, credit card, and cash. Any currency of cash as well. So if you want to pay the newest dollars or Canadian dollars, that's okay. We have a widow's sloney. Who brought this in, please? I was told, but I've forgotten. Thank you. This little sloney is up for sale. A cloud? Is that what it is? This is the cloud. Elephant and the cloud. $20 from Josh. Do I hear $30? $30? $40? Do I hear $50? $50. Do I hear $60? $60? $70 anyone? $70? No, no, no, no. Okay, $70. $75 anyone? Anyone going for $75? $75 back here from Dennis. $75 going once. $80? $85. $85? $90? $95. $95? $100. $100? $105 anyone? $105? Okay, we're jumping again. Now $110.

Next, we have a number of PG Day... Yes. Or US. You want to pay you F's? Whichever you have handy. Okay. We have one, two, three, four, five, six PG Day T-Share. But we're only going to sell auction one off. All the others will go for the same price. Sizes? All extra large. So, extra large Asia. Okay. So, there's the front, there's the back. Start at 10 bucks. Oh, come on. 10. You want them all? That'll be $40 for four. That'll be $40 for four. Okay. All extra large. That size on me. In private or... You can try it on here if you want. So, $10. Do I hear 15? Okay. Rubber gets this one for 10. Anyone want to pay five for one of them? Five? Anyone? It's going to charity, remember? Okay. We'll come back. What? Five? Okay. Mr. Frost? If you buy one for five, you can pay it for five. I like what you did. Anyone else? Anyone else? Dennis will buy one for 11. I won't buy one for 11. Well, we could go the other way. Who will pay Dennis not to try it on? Anyone else want one? It's charity. Come on. You have foreign currency in your pocket that you need to get... Okay. 10. Another one from 10. We have... Let me see here. We have two left. All buy one for 15 if someone will bid me. No one going to bid me at 15? Okay. You will? You will, Dennis? You'll buy the existing one at 16. Okay. So I'll buy one at 15, and Dennis is changing his price to 16. Thank you. And we have one left. The last PG day... I'll have one of five, really. I'll have a fast answer tomorrow. Okay. This is XXL. This one's XXL. If it's twice as big, I'll take it for 20. Okay. 20. There's another XXL in here, too. It appears we made a mistake. There are different sizes. Okay. Next item is a very rare pin. More importantly, it is a broken pin. As you can see... And I wish to point out it's number 41. 5 bucks. Okay. 5 bucks. Who's going to pay 5 bucks? 5 bucks here. Do I hear 10? 10 anywhere. 10 over here. Do I hear 15? 15. Do I hear 20? Over here? Dennis? 20? 20 over here. Do I hear 25 anywhere? 25 from Robert. 25 going once? 30 anyone? 30 over here? 35? 35. Do I hear 40? 40 going... sorry, 35 going once? 35 going twice? What? 40. 40. $40. Anyone going to pay more than $40? Anyone going to pay $45? Yes, you do. But that is a really good idea. You should have mentioned that earlier. Okay, $45 just for the pin? We'll fill the... It's a gift with purchase. Yes, it's a gift with purchase. That's a theme we'll use a lot today. It's a limited edition. Limited edition. $45. Anyone going to pay $50 for a broken pin? $41. The number on the back is 41041. $45. $45 was the last bid, I believe. Do we hear $50? $45 going once? $45 going twice? Sold. What's your first name, please? Marco. Thank you. Marco. Marco? Did I get that right? Next item. You may not be able to read that from back there. And we have three of them. I'm sure you could use them to clean anything you wanted. Now, I wish to point out that there were different colors. There's sort of like a greeny blue one, do you reckon that's... And there's a pink one and there's a green one. How much does it take for the fork? I want to point out that Oracle is right on the handle here as well. It's not just on the packaging, it's on the handle. Okay, so what we'll do is we'll bid for one and the person who comes down gets their choice of colors. Okay, so there's the three colors at the moment. The first one's the most valuable because you get your choice of colors. But then they become progressively rarer, therefore the cost goes up. So who forgot their toothbrush at home? Did anyone forget their toothbrush? Dennis, you forget your toothbrush. So 10 bucks sounds reasonable for one of them? Yeah, $10. $15? $20? $25 at the back? $30? Alright, next bid will be $50. Anyone paying $50? $50 right here. $60 anyone? Thank you Dennis. $60 from Dennis. Is that right? Did I skip a bid? Alright, $65 anyone? $60 to Dennis. $65 going once? Sorry, $60 going once, $60 going twice. Sold to Dennis. What color would you like, sir? You'd better come down here and choose your color. Because that's important. Okay, who else wants one? At that price. What was the previous bid? Which one do you want? Isn't it nice? You want the pink one? Yeah, that's right. Okay, so there's two left. You You You You You You You You You You You You You You So if you add $20 to your bid, he'll give you $1. So anyway, $60 going once, $60 going twice. Sold. Thank you. Alright. Now, there are still some very big items for sale. But don't forget about the feedback. Okay? We're going to sell... oh wait, wait, wait. Something much more serious. Chocolate... sorry, white chocolate cookie? The last one. Anyone want the cookie? $1 for the cookie. That's just changing your pocket. Peter gets it for $1. $2? $3. $3? $3? Okay. Anyone else $3? $4. Okay. $3? $5. $5. $6. Anyone? $5 going once. $5 going twice. Sold to Mr. Peter. Thank you. Alright. Anybody remember this piece of artwork from last year? It was on the Twitter site. Stacey drew this last year during the auction and it sold for $45? And then I added my signature to it and I got it 10. It went to Turn It In. It was in Turn It In offices all year and they brought it back and offered it up again for resale. This time it's in a glass frame. And it's titled at the bottom. So I think we should start at $40. Turn It In offers $40 for their own artwork. Do I hear $45? $45 from the man sitting beside Turn It In. $45 going once. $45 going twice. $50. It's appreciating. Come on. It's international artwork. It's been to the States and back. There are two signatures on it. One is the artist and the other is the conference organizers. We could add more signatures if you want. There's actually a flaw in the artwork that when the conference on the canvas there's a flaw. The conference organizers signed the incorrect year which makes it even more valuable. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. How about $250? How about $250. Are you interested in $250? $250. We're doing $250 now. And for the audio we're selling off the t-shirt from 2006. Is there anyone that has a signature on that? I know you would want to add signatures to it. Nobody adds signatures because it's a point in time. It's a write-only log. It's ten years old. It was the first Canadian post-gres conference. We were at $250. $250 going once? $260. I'm sorry. I got it wrong. $260 going once? $275. We're at $275 now. It's very rare. There's only one of these. $300? I told you we'd get the $300 eventually. $300. Sorry, now say that again, please. This is the first approved list for Tom Lane's signature. The bidding was $700. Tom Lane signed it. You did it. For the audio, it proved that Tom Lane's signature was worth $300 because the bidding was at $700. Tom realized he'd forgotten to sign it, then bidding jumped to $700. So where are we at now? $300. $300 going once? $300 going twice? Sold. Thank you. Put your hand up. The third last... Third last cookie. Second last? Is there still a cookie? Yeah, it's the new second last cookie. Someone was $7. $7 still? Is still interested in this for $7? $7. Okay. Eight, anyone? Eight? $7 going once? $7 going twice? Sold. There are no more cookies. Your name, please? Nah. Over here. Yes? No, it did not sell. Josh, do you want to show this? Yes. Ah, I found them. I told you they were there. Yeah, I know you did, but I didn't know where they were. Here. Can you get this one? Uh-oh. There we go. There we go. I'm going to say happy 21st-century Post-Quest poster, designed by one of the guys at Sallieville. We've got a client by the way who's a developer, maybe? $40. Who said $200? Do I hear $225? $225, anyone? How many signatures are there? There's only one of these posters. I'm not lying. There's only one of these posters. $225. $250. Do I hear $275 anywhere? $275, $250. $250 is the current bid, $250 going once, $250 going twice, $275. Hold your hand up when you say that. $275, do I hear $300, sir? $300. $275 going once, $300. $350? $300 going once, $300 going twice, anyone else? Sold. Thank you. Thank you. Who's the winner, sorry? Now, this is the one of a kind because it's signed. There are, the other tubes there contain unsigned versions of this poster. So this is the poster you saw in the video during the lightning talks. This one is signed by more, 100, 100, 100. Bids already on, I'll shut up. $100. Anyone, $150? $150, anyone? $150. Yes, Dennis, $150 already. No, no, no, I just meant $200. $200, anyone? Okay, $225. $300, okay, that one, correct? $350, anyone? $350, $300, okay, $350, $400, anyone? $350 going once, $350 going twice, sold to Lacey. What? What? What? I guess you can go closer to seeing yourself. Almost everyone. If you've ever been to a PostgreSQL conference, you're on this poster. All right, but we're sold. $350. Okay, could you roll that up for me, please? So, Lacey. So we have one, two, three, four, five, six. We have seven more of these posters, but none of them are signed. They're all the same as that. Anyone, one for $75? Anyone, one for $80? $100. Okay, we'll do it this way. We'll do it this way. How much did that sell for? $350? I'm going to start naming numbers down from $350. When you get to a price you'll pay for, put your hand up, okay? $350, $340, $300, $250, $175, $200, okay? Anyone want to pay? Okay, we'll give that one to him for $200. Dennis, Dennis. I'm not going to walk over there with each one, so there's one there. Oh, wait. We have a Microsoft mouse. The battery obviously works because the light's on on the bottom. Does anyone recognize this as being theirs? Because the bidding goes better if you admit it's yours. I believe so. I don't know if it's Bluetooth or not, but I think it is. I suspect it is. I think it's something for another. Five bucks anyone? Five bucks? Okay, we'll pass on that one. We've got an adapter. It's a plug adapter. It's not a voltage converter, but it's a plug adapter. Anyone missing this? Anyone need one? Slightly cracked. I'll just sell that one. No, no more cookies. Okay, so the last poster went for $200, did it? Okay, $195? $190. $175? $175. What's your name, please? No. $180. Trust me, I know what I'm doing. $180? Anyone want this one from $180? $175? $170? $160? $150? $140? $130? $120? $110? $100? $100. Anyone want one for $100? Anyone want one for $100? Anyone want one for $90? $80? $75? $60? Sorry, what was your name? Kamal. What was that price? $65 anyone? $65? $60? $45? Anyone want one for $45? No? $45, okay. Jeff David. $50? Anyone want one for $50? You sure? There's only two left. Okay. Anyone want another one for $50? This is the last one. I promise. $50. Sorry. Your name, please? I'll bring these over here. Does anyone have anything else they're going to sell off? There. I almost had Mr. Fisk's laptop. I had it in my hand and I was walking away from it. Sorry, Mr. Riggs' laptop is safely back on the way to England. The only thing we have left is this t-shirt. Is anyone interested? $1. You'll buy that for $1? I'm only interested in buying this t-shirt. Okay. $5 to Mr. Fisk. And I believe that's all the auctions we have for sale. Did I miss anything? Now, we have some t-shirts left over. If you want t-shirts to impress your colleagues with back home, take them. Pick the size you want. They're extra large and up. There are larges maybe. Yeah, there's some larges. And there's all kinds of bags. If you don't take them away, we're going to give them to the auto emission and to the food bank. Which is not a bad thing. I'm just saying that's what we're going to do with them. Oh, we're almost done. Because that's the last slide. Any questions, comments? Things we should have done different? If you don't want to say it out loud, send me an email. Put it in the comments here. If you have things that you want to say about the conference and you'd rather say it anonymously, you can do it through there. Hopefully we'll see it. I say that because there's an awful lot of comments, but we do go through them. What we need, sorry. Oh, auction total is $2,296. APPLAUSE How do you get to the next month? The next month. Yeah. So yeah, I tweeted about that. I said, you know, beat PGCon. So why don't we get to an even $2,300? The box that the cookies were in. So we need how many? We need four more dollars? Someone give four dollars so we can get out of here. Robert Treet. Thank you. So, thank you. May next year. May 27. We're back here. I don't know exactly what dates, but roughly around the same time. All right. What? Sorry. Thank you very much. Safe travels home. Thank you for coming and tell all your friends. APPLAUSE

Okay, so there's two left.  You  You  You  You  You  You  You  You  You  You  You  You  You  You  So if you add $20 to your bid, he'll give you $1.  So anyway, $60 going once, $60 going twice.  Sold. Thank you.  Alright.  Now, there are still some very big items for sale.  But don't forget about the feedback. Okay?  We're going to sell... oh wait, wait, wait. Something much more serious.  Chocolate... sorry, white chocolate cookie?  The last one.  Anyone want the cookie? $1 for the cookie.  That's just changing your pocket. Peter gets it for $1.  $2? $3. $3? $3? Okay. Anyone else $3? $4.  Okay.  $3? $5. $5. $6. Anyone? $5 going once. $5 going twice. Sold to Mr. Peter. Thank you.  Alright.  Anybody remember this piece of artwork from last year? It was on the Twitter site.  Stacey drew this last year during the auction and it sold for $45?  And then I added my signature to it and I got it 10. It went to Turn It In.  It was in Turn It In offices all year and they brought it back and offered it up again for resale.  This time it's in a glass frame.  And it's titled at the bottom. So I think we should start at $40.  Turn It In offers $40 for their own artwork.  Do I hear $45? $45 from the man sitting beside Turn It In.  $45 going once. $45 going twice. $50. It's appreciating.  Come on. It's international artwork. It's been to the States and back.  There are two signatures on it. One is the artist and the other is the conference organizers.  We could add more signatures if you want.  There's actually a flaw in the artwork that when the conference on the canvas there's a flaw.  The conference organizers signed the incorrect year which makes it even more valuable.  Thank you.  Thank you.  Thank you.  Thank you.  Thank you.  Thank you.  Thank you.  How about $250? How about $250.  Are you interested in $250?  $250. We're doing $250 now.  And for the audio we're selling off the t-shirt from 2006.  Is there anyone that has a signature on that?  I know you would want to add signatures to it.  Nobody adds signatures because it's a point in time. It's a write-only log.  It's ten years old.  It was the first Canadian post-gres conference.  We were at $250.  $250 going once?  $260. I'm sorry. I got it wrong.  $260 going once?  $275. We're at $275 now.  It's very rare.  There's only one of these.  $300?  I told you we'd get the $300 eventually.  $300.  Sorry, now say that again, please.  This is the first approved list for Tom Lane's signature.  The bidding was $700.  Tom Lane signed it.  You did it.  For the audio, it proved that Tom Lane's signature was worth $300 because the bidding was at $700.  Tom realized he'd forgotten to sign it, then bidding jumped to $700.  So where are we at now? $300.  $300 going once?  $300 going twice?  Sold. Thank you.  Put your hand up.  The third last...  Third last cookie.  Second last? Is there still a cookie?  Yeah, it's the new second last cookie.  Someone was $7. $7 still?  Is still interested in this for $7?  $7. Okay.  Eight, anyone? Eight?  $7 going once? $7 going twice? Sold.  There are no more cookies.  Your name, please?  Nah.  Over here.  Yes?  No, it did not sell.  Josh, do you want to show this?  Yes.  Ah, I found them.  I told you they were there.  Yeah, I know you did, but I didn't know where they were.  Here.  Can you get this one?  Uh-oh.  There we go.  There we go.  I'm going to say happy 21st-century Post-Quest poster,  designed by one of the guys at Sallieville.  We've got a client by the way who's a developer, maybe?  $40.  Who said $200?  Do I hear $225? $225, anyone?  How many signatures are there?  There's only one of these posters.  I'm not lying.  There's only one of these posters.  $225.  $250. Do I hear $275 anywhere? $275, $250.  $250 is the current bid, $250 going once, $250 going twice, $275.  Hold your hand up when you say that.  $275, do I hear $300, sir? $300.  $275 going once, $300.  $350?  $300 going once, $300 going twice, anyone else?  Sold. Thank you.  Thank you.  Who's the winner, sorry?  Now, this is the one of a kind because it's signed.  There are, the other tubes there contain unsigned versions of this poster.  So this is the poster you saw in the video during the lightning talks.  This one is signed by more, 100, 100, 100.  Bids already on, I'll shut up. $100.  Anyone, $150? $150, anyone? $150.  Yes, Dennis, $150 already.  No, no, no, I just meant $200.  $200, anyone?  Okay, $225.  $300, okay, that one, correct?  $350, anyone? $350, $300, okay, $350, $400, anyone?  $350 going once, $350 going twice, sold to Lacey.  What? What? What?  I guess you can go closer to seeing yourself.  Almost everyone.  If you've ever been to a PostgreSQL conference, you're on this poster.  All right, but we're sold. $350.  Okay, could you roll that up for me, please?  So, Lacey.  So we have one, two, three, four, five, six.  We have seven more of these posters, but none of them are signed.  They're all the same as that.  Anyone, one for $75?  Anyone, one for $80?  $100.  Okay, we'll do it this way. We'll do it this way.  How much did that sell for? $350?  I'm going to start naming numbers down from $350.  When you get to a price you'll pay for, put your hand up, okay?  $350, $340, $300, $250, $175, $200, okay?  Anyone want to pay? Okay, we'll give that one to him for $200.  Dennis, Dennis.  I'm not going to walk over there with each one, so there's one there.  Oh, wait.  We have a Microsoft mouse.  The battery obviously works because the light's on on the bottom.  Does anyone recognize this as being theirs?  Because the bidding goes better if you admit it's yours.  I believe so.  I don't know if it's Bluetooth or not, but I think it is.  I suspect it is.  I think it's something for another.  Five bucks anyone? Five bucks?  Okay, we'll pass on that one.  We've got an adapter. It's a plug adapter.  It's not a voltage converter, but it's a plug adapter.  Anyone missing this? Anyone need one?  Slightly cracked.  I'll just sell that one.  No, no more cookies.  Okay, so the last poster went for $200, did it?  Okay, $195? $190.  $175? $175.  What's your name, please?  No.  $180.  Trust me, I know what I'm doing.  $180? Anyone want this one from $180?  $175? $170? $160? $150? $140? $130? $120? $110? $100?  $100.  Anyone want one for $100?  Anyone want one for $100?  Anyone want one for $90? $80? $75? $60?  Sorry, what was your name?  Kamal.  What was that price?  $65 anyone? $65? $60? $45?  Anyone want one for $45?  No? $45, okay.  Jeff David.  $50? Anyone want one for $50? You sure? There's only two left.  Okay.  Anyone want another one for $50? This is the last one. I promise.  $50.  Sorry.  Your name, please?  I'll bring these over here.  Does anyone have anything else they're going to sell off?  There.  I almost had Mr. Fisk's laptop.  I had it in my hand and I was walking away from it.  Sorry, Mr. Riggs' laptop is safely back on the way to England.  The only thing we have left is this t-shirt.  Is anyone interested? $1. You'll buy that for $1?  I'm only interested in buying this t-shirt.  Okay. $5 to Mr. Fisk.  And I believe that's all the auctions we have for sale.  Did I miss anything?  Now, we have some t-shirts left over.  If you want t-shirts to impress your colleagues with back home, take them.  Pick the size you want. They're extra large and up.  There are larges maybe. Yeah, there's some larges.  And there's all kinds of bags.  If you don't take them away, we're going to give them to the auto emission and to the food bank.  Which is not a bad thing. I'm just saying that's what we're going to do with them.  Oh, we're almost done. Because that's the last slide.  Any questions, comments?  Things we should have done different?  If you don't want to say it out loud, send me an email.  Put it in the comments here.  If you have things that you want to say about the conference and you'd rather say it anonymously,  you can do it through there.  Hopefully we'll see it.  I say that because there's an awful lot of comments, but we do go through them.  What we need, sorry.  Oh, auction total is $2,296.  APPLAUSE  How do you get to the next month?  The next month.  Yeah.  So yeah, I tweeted about that. I said, you know, beat PGCon.  So why don't we get to an even $2,300?  The box that the cookies were in.  So we need how many? We need four more dollars?  Someone give four dollars so we can get out of here.  Robert Treet. Thank you.  So, thank you.  May next year.  May 27. We're back here.  I don't know exactly what dates, but roughly around the same time.  All right. What? Sorry.  Thank you very much. Safe travels home.  Thank you for coming and tell all your friends.  APPLAUSE
