Aside from promoting diversity in the database landscape, what
motivates you to work with PgSQL?  Now that MySQL has stored
procedures, triggers, subqueries, etc. why stick with PgSQL.  Support
for PgSQL is almost always secondary in open source projects, so I've
never seen a compelling reason to learn PgSQL.  Anyone have one?

I know you're no newbie to RH so I'll assume you gave it a fair shot,
but I'm just curious where in the process you got stopped.

Also, do you guys maintain in house up2date mirrors or something or
just use the RHN provided ones?  Do you feel it's much (any?) better
than yum?

Cheers,
Greg
