It was derived from Tyrex and used to test Tyrex, but the PostgreSQL
specific code is contributed to PostgreSQL under their license.

I'm using Linux 2.2/Sun JDK 1.2.2 (Blackdown with the name filed off)
running Tyrex inside Tomcat and it works like a charm.

Are you considering using or contributing to an open source JMS
implementation?
