Indeed, a free release of eRServer was released last night and is available at http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/erserver/download/download.php There was an announcement sent to pgsql-announce also.
We will now be evaluating this to see if it is suitable for our needs.
I spoke to PostgreSQL Inc last night and was informed that they will be releasing their previous versions of eRServer to the open source community 6-12 months after it has been replaced by the next commercial version. The commercial version is still sold, supported and developed, and is currently at version 1.3. The open source version just released is a modified version of 1.2 basically.
Cheers, Chris.

There's (about to be?) a free version available now. If you start grovelling around on gborg some time late this afternoon (uh, EDT), I think you'll stumble on it.
