I know!  I remember warning y'all about it back at pgcon last year. :)

Sure, to be fair, we are under the gun here for a product, it may just 
mean that the end result of that conversation is "mysql".

I'm hoping we can use Postgresql as I've been a huge fan since 1999.  I 
based my first successful project on it and had a LOT of help from the 
pgsql community, Tom, Bruce and we even contracted Vadim for some work 
on incremental vacuums!
