That isn't good. PostgreSQl is a very good database. I had trouble
trying to convince the developers that there should be a way to switch
out a WAL (archive) log after doing a hot backup, but otherwise I found
it very nice (especially not having to deal with mutating triggers!). It
doesn't have the high-end features and tuning tools, but it is a very
good solid product. I used a company called PostgreSQL, Inc. for 3rd
party product support and they were very good.

Hi folks
Today in the headlines:
"Oracle shuts down open source build and test servers for PostgreSQL"
http://www.itnews.com.au/News/221051%2coracle-shuts-down-open-source-tes
t-servers.aspx
Sad to see innovative company named Sun to be destroyed by Oracle :-(
cheers Sven
