Any thoughts on the eva/3 one (the one we got 8 copies of). It runs with PostgreSQL as well as a number of other DBs and is free for personal use but not commercial. I'm kinda on the fence on this one - on one hand it's another commercial app recognising and supporting PostgreSQL, on the other, well, it's a commercial app. Regards, Dave.

Bruce,

Nothing's wrong with commercial stuff. It's a question of how important the
announcement is -- we wouldn't take news for the front page announcing
Bricolage 1.8.7.5.2 either. I didn't keep a copy, though ... is it a new
product, or an incremental release?
