That's a pretty hostile presentation...

The page has had two states:

 a) In 2008, someone wrote up...

    After some bad experiences with MySQL (data loss by commercial power
    failure, very bad performance deleting old records and more) I would
    prefer to have a MythTV Application option to use PostgreSQL. I
    never saw such bad database behaviour at any other RDBMS than MySQL.

    I'm ready to contribute at any activity going that direction (I'm
    developer for commercial database applications).
