We are in the process of porting a logistics application to Postgres from a Progress Software database. We have about 75 employees and will be putting Postgres to work in a real time business situation where there are lots of transactions. Once we are successful in this endeavor, how can we get stories like that out to people who would care to know? I know this is a small business project, but will it help to advertise that the "little" guys are in the trenches doing this kind of thing?Absolutely. If you have a case study you can point over to pgsql-advocacy.
Sincerely,
Joshua D. Drake

To whom it may concern:
I find the recent articles in various trade publications a little disturbing due to the lack of PostgrSQL mention. I continue to see articles about how IBM may be considering MYSQL for development an open_source web database.
Why isn't PostgreSQL being considered or talked about by major industry giants? As a DBA I know that Postgres is far superior to MYSQL but if the industry directs it's energies towards open-source database this coming year I think somehow PostgreSQL needs to be represented better.
