Hi Pat,

sorry for the late reply -- this is the reason why we use mailing lists for 
relaying support more quickly ;-) I forward this message to the devel list 
now, hoping that we can get some PostgreSQL users together to achieve 
compatibility. The current SMW, both the 1.1.1 release and the SVN version, 
are reported to not work properly with Postgres, but I am sure that this is 
not really hard to fix. It would be great to have some people who can provide 
hints and are willing to test this on their machines.

Regards,

Markus

P.S. The website now moved to a new server (after HD crashs on the old one), 
and is hoped to operate more reliably now. I will also get you a login once I 
finished the new setup (the user list was not moved yet -- I have to find out 
how to do that first).
