They have a nice timely list of open source Unix software, with nice descriptions and links to home pages. I have worked with them on a number of issues, and they have been helpful. Of course, they list PostgreSQL. Recently, I mentioned we have released 6.4.2(they were listing 6.4.1), and mentioned they could subscribe to the 'announce' list to receive news on updates. They have subscribed, so will always have the most recent version listed. Their current listing for us is: Login Add Software Account PostgreSQL 6.4.2 Plexus 18/01/1999 PostgreSQL is a robust, next-generation, Object-Relational DBMS (ORDBMS), derived from the Berkeley Postgres database management system. While PostgreSQL retains the powerful object-relational data model, rich data types and easy extensibility of Postgres, it replaces the PostQuel query language with an extended subset of SQL. After 5 intense months of development, the PostgreSQL Global Development Group is pleased to announce the release of v6.4, a much improved release of the popular PostgreSQL ORDBMS. As always, there is *alot* of new features, bug fixes and changes since the last release...over 200 lines worth in our HISTORY file.

Perhaps we should add a link on our homepage that says: "For information on other open source software, see Xshare." It is hard to know all the software available, and Xshare helps in that. -- Bruce Momjian | http://www.op.net/~candle maillist@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 853-3000 + If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania 19026 ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 2+ messages in thread

The reader won't know that each change item is listed on one line. So perhaps the next Xshare synopsis could refer to "over 200 distinct fixes and enhancements from the last release". > Author: The PostgreSQL Global Development Group, per our copyright notice? > Licence: > unknown BSD? > Systems: > FreeBSD, HP-Unix, Irix, Linux, NetBSD, > OpenBSD, Solaris Many more than that... - Tom ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 2+ messages in thread
