Sent my email off, I've used MySQL for a long time, and would hate to 
see MySQL die :-(

Thanks :-)

Postgresql uses MVCC (multi-verson concurrency control) so tables aren't locked 
for transactions but each operation only sees previously committed updates.

It does have transactional DDL. But you should go to PostgreSQL web
