Sorry for not replying to a thread but I have a digest subscription... Thank you hackers for all your hard work!!! I use PostgreSQL everyday and love it. My current job would be impossible if I was forced to use MS Access.
I don't mind using postgres under cygwin but would much rather use a native windows port. I am still must use 7.4.1 under cygwin until Redhat releases cygwin 1.5.10. Running under cygwin will probably always force windows users to be behind the latest and greatest postgresql version. As postgresql gets more complex I fear it will fall further behind. I am not a cygwin programmer but making sure changes to the cygwin dll are compatible with windows and all the individual packages it also supports can't be very easy. I will continue to patiently wait for windows version. Even if it means 8.0. If only I was skilled enough to help out.....
