I proposed an alternative and received positive support. You haven't changed things in line with those posts. I have one specific objection only: we, the PostgreSQL project, should be doing this in the name of the project, not let another do it.

This is just verbal dancing. The survey would never be a moral point. The point of the discussion was about community standards with regard to marketing. It's not a question of morals and I do not claim to be authority on morality. What are our standards? Do we have any? Would we stick to them if we had any? -- Simon Riggs www.2ndQuadrant.com PostgreSQL Training, Services and Support
