*******************************************************************************************
The PostgreSQL community is committed to creating and maintaining the best, 
most reliable, open-source multi-purpose standards based database, and with 
it, promote free and open source software world wide.

Ultimately, PostgreSQL database is a gift to Humanity serving freedom, 
knowledge and equal access to information, and as such belongs to every 
Human.

PostgreSQL is "transcendantal", which means it goes "beyond" the original 
concept of its creators. People began working on it for various reasons (for 
professional needs, because of open-source code, to have fun) ... and 
ultimately it becomes a gift to Humanity.

My feeling is that the PostgreSQL community is making history without even 
noticing it. You are all heroes my friends...
