PostgreSQL+

Perhaps the PostgreSQL project should give these guys two fingers and simply call themselves PostgreSQL++

This is an example of brand identity theft.

Sun and Postres 

Posted Tuesday 25th March 2008 19:57 GMT

what everybody seems to be forgetting is that Sun also sells and supports PostgreSQL, so it isn't really competing against Sun... both postgres and mysql are part of Sun's stack

also, I agree with AC... this EnterpriseDB keeps saying their product is Postgres and that is opensource, when they only take the real Postgres, add some non-opensource stuff and sell it

IBM is not funding the postgres opensource DB, it's funding the closed enterpriseDB who knows for what...
