I tried sending this in earlier -- but it doesn't seem to have gotten
through.
Following is a case study written by myself and laid out by Omar and
Emily.
http://www.alcove.com.au/~swm/Proximity10.pdf
There are some great quotes for the site in this.
Thanks,
Gavin

Yep. I think it's a good case study. It's for the postgresql.org Web site
by the way -- can someone put it up?

Do we have permission to add quotes to the front page? I'd like to add
"We consider the availability of source code a major advantage of using an
open source database. We haven't had to go a fix any bugs ourselves, but we
have peered at the source to satisfy ourselves as to how things work" --
Tim Allen, Senior Software Developer, Proximity Group.
Also I would like to add dates to the case studies descriptions on the site
unless there are any objections.

Yes.

There are other good quotes:
"Our systems are deployed in high-availability environments and the
combination of PostgreSQL on Linux has enabled us to deploy and support
systems without any need for a large support team."

I think the PDF itself should be dated too. I'll talk to Omar.
Thanks,

Yeah, how do we feel about multiple quotes from the same person?

I see no problem in general with it. Assuming we have "enough" quotes in
general that is - so we get a reasonable rotation in respect to person
as well as quote.
