Hi, yes I am very interested in this issue, and ORDBMS and ODBMS are
rather different. 

A long time ago, I wrote up a web page about this issue here...
http://www.tech.com.au/postgres/

which should tell you all my thoughts on this issue. Basicly I can
contribute a LOT of work to the postgres project, but as far as hacking
the back end to achieve it - the learning curve is steep compared to my
available time. But hacking a client side stuff, I could handle.

Enjoy,
Chris Bitmead.
