It's interesting that you think that's possible. I've thus far refused requests from our marketing department to do exactly at as I thought it would certainly be a violation of the policy. I'm not convinced it wouldn't be even now, but it's interesting to know you might find something acceptable. When I get a hour (probably a couple of years from now as things are currently looking!) I might give it a whirl and run it past you guys. --=20 Dave Page Blog: http://pgsnake.blogspot.com Twitter: @pgsnake EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company
