I think I am qualified enough to say it is not a violation of TPC
fair-use policy if we scope the data as a measure of how PostgreSQL has
changed from 8.1 to 8.3 and refrain from comparing these results to what
any other database is doing.
The point is to measure PostgreSQL's progress not market it, correct?
