Anyone disagree?
why does it have to be THE BEST ? that is insulting to the other projects like MySQL which while "competitors" are also a valid and useful benchmark for features, performance and keeping the postgresql community on its collective toes. postgresql is not THE BEST in all applications, so calling it that is inviting derision and pointless arguments. i'd go with: The PostgreSQL community is committed to creating and maintaining a very reliable, open-source, multi-purpose, standards-based database, and encouraging participation in open-source usage and development world wide. -- [ Jim Mercer [EMAIL PROTECTED] +1 416 410-5633 ] [ I want to live forever, or die trying. ] ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
