Hi,
if you look for Links to PostgreSQL-Software, try the
www.postgresql.de -> Software
I've searched the Internet and wrote a list; not perfectly and complete,
but very many items and the Links should be correct.
Unfortunetally some descriptions are only in german... (If you've some
questions,
I can help you)
The main-sections, i used, are:
1. PostgreSQL-Standarddistribution = the Software in the official distribution
2. Erweiterungen für PostgreSQl, außerhalb der Distribution =
PostgreSQL-Enhancements outside the distro
3. Software für/for PostgreSQL
4. Projekte mit PostgreSQL = PostgreSQL-projects
4. Weitere Software für PostgreSQL finden = find another PostgreSQL-Software
5. PostgreSQL-Webhosting
I hope, my list is helpful. If something is wrong, please send me
corrections...
Bye
Gerald Leppert
