You're kidding me...
No I am not... You missed the point, there is no official Linux website.
Linux.org is ran by one guy,
linux.com is run by VA (I actually used to have [EMAIL PROTECTED]), I own
Linuxdoc.org and Linuxdoc.com...
The closest you get to a "linux" website is kernel.org.

That's good to hear. What is monogo and is it the problem here?

It works well but it is my understanding that our docs search doesn't
use PostgreSQL

I used to have that complaint until I got more aquainted with the docs.
When I used to use mysql I found that if I used search feature on their docs
I could find exactly what I was looking for almost immediately. When I use
the postgres doc search feature I don't get the same experience. It is

What I meant was integrated replication. When adding more layers to the database
there is yet one more possible mechanism for failure at some point. I don't

I'm still not sure if the

Yes, I don't understand why people seem to keep complaining about
Postgres' documentation - it is by far the best reference documentation
1. Replication: Like it or not most people regard their data and access to their
data as 'invaluable'. If not, why are they storing it. Having a secondary
server (read slaves) on which you can perform backups, load balance RO traffic,
and eventually use as a failover has been one of the great sell

I have to agree. In my experience the average database user out there does not
need the entire functionality of something like Oracle. It is because of this
that I have used MySQL for many years now.
In this light (please accept my confession as to being a more prolific MySQL
user), I am becoming
Hello Bob!
Everybody knows that PostgreSQL is better than MySQL and supports more
features etc. But remember - the main issue of database systems now is

database engines are made for. At least here (My second job is

Why would IBM use and promote postgres when it is much closer an offering
to DB2 than MySQL, and a much bigger commercial threat?
I'll bet that IBM will be planning
