Hi Mitch,

PMFJI ... Knowledge Engineering is where Great Bridge touches its 
customers- it encompasses engineering support, consulting, and 
training.  Joe and his colleagues support our paying customers and also 
do some development and documentation work.  And of course, they're on 
the project mailing lists like everyone else :-)

<propaganda>
We made up the name to highlight what we think is important in an open 
source company - real engineers, who deal in knowledge of the software.  
So it's not some entry-level operator taking a customer's call, it's 
someone who's a trained user of PostgreSQL himself.  Our competitive 
advantage as a company can't lie in anything like proprietary software 
products- it has to be in the people we hire and retain.
</propaganda>

Regards,
Ned
