Guess which was the first one I looked at when I discovered I needed to learn SQL? Then I looked at the licence and I couldn't use it without paying for it so I checked out PostgreSQL... From various mails I have been receiving an important part of lost users checked out PostgreSQL a couple of years ago. They weren't impressed by the speed. We also need a campaign along the lines of "come back, we got speed"... RedHat can not push its version of PostgreSQL and stay friends with Larry who gives them lots of money. So we can't count on them being a motor behind a marketing effort. You all know why we need more visibility? Because it becomes easier to propose a PostgreSQL solution to clients! Ever had the CIO asking "why don't we use MySQL? That seems to be a very poular database"?... Maybe we could do a campaogn on "putting the P back into LAPP"? (Linux, Apache, PHP, PostgreSQL) I think that we should emphasize "high-end" and "powerful" as we are looking for capturing the elite user aren't we? Enough fluff for today Cheers Tony -- RedHat Linux on Sony Vaio C1XD/S http://www.animaproductions.com/linux2.html Macromedia UltraDev with PostgreSQL http://www.animaproductions.com/ultra.html
