The whole "it will have X feature in release Y" is classic FUD. If you can remember back to when they had statements explaining why transactions were bad, or foreign keys were bad, these are also classic FUD tactics. (ie. paint your oppositions strengths as weaknesses). It surprises me that the open source community, we is usually pretty anti-FUD, has let this go on for so long. I know it's quite likely that we've done some spinning in the past, generally I think the people promoting postgresql have done a good job of avoiding spin and have steered clear of these types of underhanded things, and I think the quality of posters on all of these message boards supporting us reflects this. </rant> Robert Treat
