Thank you, the difference is clear to me now. I imagine the incubator will sort out if the naming is a problem from trademark perspectives. Again, for my own edification, could you perhaps explain a bit further what the difference users experience between AgensGraph and AgensGraph Extensions? Is there some advantage to AgensGraph being an extension to postgres rather than being embedded as part of the postgres code itself? If these kinds of questions are answered elsewhere, I'm happy to take a link and go back to being quiet until the next graph product comes through Incubator :) On Thu, Apr 9, 2020 at 3:25 PM Eya Badal Abdisho <eya.abdi...@bitnine.net> wrote: > > > On 2020/04/08 14:02:26, Stephen Mallette <spmalle...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Just a general question from someone who tries to follow what happens in > > the graph community in general - what is the relationship between > > "AgensGraph" and "AgensGraph Extensions"? > > > >Agensgraph is a fork of Postgres, where the source code was directly > modified to implement the Cypher query language.
