[SLUG] Re: [SLUG-ANNOUNCE] Sydney PostgreSQL User Group - inaugural meeting
Dear Anand, I'm interested in coming along. I'm a newbie to Linux and am still trying to figure out how to use the MySQL that came bundled with OpenOffice.org, lack of operational knowledge/experience of RDB's not withstanding. What is the major difference? Can PostgreSQL be used as a GIS? Note that I have not yet _fully_ RTFM'd PostgreSQL, or .
