What can we do exactly? Probably the Postgres client library (that'd be libpq) can be included as part of the PHP distribution. With that, according to the thread, the Postgres support could be built in by default. I can't find the PHP license on their website though. Better hurry. Sterling Hughes is proposing to enable SQlite support by default; that move could be bad for the lobbying of activating Pg support. -- Alvaro Herrera (<alvherre[a]dcc.uchile.cl>) "The Postgresql hackers have what I call a "NASA space shot" mentality.
