This is not without good reason. PostgreSQL has shown repeatedly to be
an excellent product, able to compete with most commercial products.
I've just been asked to give a little administration course for people
in an government organization, where Oracle has been disregarded for
giving little gain over what PostgreSQL gives. I am pleased to have
done such a good decision to stick with PostgreSQL a couple years ago.
I will just continue with my crusade here, where everything appears to
be only Oracle and just a little MySQL.
Of course none of this would be possible without the excellent quality
of the work people here does. If there is something to be amazed at is
the people, their commitment and the quality of their work. One can
only say a big "thanks!".
