    So obvious for us, so enigmatic for non-technical people. Also,
"PostgresQL" could very well be understood as "another kind of SQL", as
people could read "Postgres Query Language". I agree that "Postgres" is a
better approach for what is desired. I still would like to know if this is
really under discussion, I mean, if such change would be possible someday.
