Thanks a lot Jonathan.

It would make sense to be a bit more critical about the drivers =
mentioned in the documentation, but I suppose that requires someone with =
knowledge of each language to make a proper assessment. I'd be happy to =
answer any questions with regards to Postgres.js if you do revisit it at =
some point.

By the way, I gotta say, it was an absolute pleasure implementing the =
PostgreSQL protocol, the documentation was fantastic, and answered all =
the questions I had along the way.

Thanks

Rasmus Porsager.
