PostgreSQL developer conference. PGCon ran annually in Ottawa (University of Ottawa) from 2007 to 2023; 2020 and 2022 were online, and 2021 was an online unconference only. After PGCon wound down, the contributor community relaunched it as PGConf.dev (PostgreSQL Development Conference) in 2024, alternating between Vancouver (SFU) and Montreal (Plaza Centre-Ville). Social links are PGConf.dev's own accounts; other_social lists the old PGCon Twitter/Mastodon/Facebook and the PGConf.dev 2026 Discord.
