Yes, partially :)
But then the upgrade path from Postgres to the Advanced Server is a very good argument for choosing Postgres (and a
majoradvantage over other so-called OpenSource RDBMS), so that's why I chose to post to pgsql-general - and because I
knowyou guys are reading this :)

That's what I thought as well.
It's a bit confusing that the documentation link on the right hand side _seems_ to relate to the current product (which
itdoesn't) and then includes the compatibility guide.
Maybe you should have column on http://www.enterprisedb.com/learning/documentation.do indicating for package the
documentis relevant.

Fine :)
Thanks for the quick answer and clarification.
