Hi Pat, I have almost nothing to add to Franics' explanation (Thanks Francis).
Like Francis said, the history of Empire-db began long before it became an Apache project and developed through many commercial applications for various projects in industry and government. There is even a C# implementation, but it has not yet been released for public use. All features have been used in at least one major project, however the databases used were mainly Oracle and sqlserver. Unfortnately I cannot comment PostgreSQL support, but if there is a problem it should be faily simple to fix.
