Bruce, this is a great thing to hear, congratulations, and I hope
you enjoy your new position at what is looking to be a great company.
Anyone with any reservations about Great Bridge need only speak to
the people there and the Postgresql developers already employed by
them to realize that this is a good thing.
I've sat on the sidelines while commercial funding and support has
poured into FreeBSD (companies hiring up our developers to work
full time on FreeBSD) and so far things are going great for us.
