Hi all, mr.super newbie here, what is the best for cold fusion development?
I know that NASA uses MySQL but I have also been told that more
'professionals'(???) use PostgreSQL. Let the flaming begin!!

One thing that wasn't mentioned is MySQL requires a license (approx $500) if you distribute non-gpl applications, like commercial applications or applications where you're not providing the source code. PostgreSQL applicatoins can be distributed for free. If you are using MySQL on a webserver then the license isn't required because you're not distributing it. But if you are distributing applications then the $500 might make a difference to your bottom line.
