Обсуждение: publicly available PostGreSQL server?
Is there a publicly available PostGreSQL server? I'm co-writing an article for an online journal that includes information about Mozilla's upcoming database support, and I'd like to point readers to a PostGreSQL installation where they can try out an example app without having to install their own server. More info about database support in Mozilla: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81653 -myk

Myk, Has anyone contacted you regarding your request? There was a guy with a Sun Sparccenter 2000 that was interested in running a PostgreSQL database and allowing raw connections to it for a while, just for your article. :-) Regards and best wishes, Justin Clift Marc G.

Mozilla's database support consists of drivers that allow app developers to write Mozilla-based apps that connect directly to a PostGreSQL server over the net. I'd like to demonstrate this, but for that I need a PostGreSQL server I can cite in the article. -myk

Unfortunately, no one has responded to me yet, so if you know how I can contact that guy, please let me know. Thanks, -myk

That's cool. It was Eric Gentilini <egentili@nerim.net>, and when suggested to him he seemed interested. There would be specifics to work out (i.e. likely bandwidth, how long it should be available, etc), but it probably doesn't hurt to look into it. :-) Regards and best wishes, Justin Clift > Thanks, > -myk -- "My grandfather once told me that there are two kinds of people: those who work and those who take the credit.
