Hi Ann,

but why PostgreSQL?
Concerning many features (especially features MySQL doesn't have, e. g.
transactions), it is quite similar to Firebird.
BTW, there was a quite good article about Open Source RDBMSs in a German
technical magazine (of course FB was missing) where MySQL and
PGSQL were compared.
If you want me to, I'll try to find this article and I could contact
you privately too see if you could use it.
Cheers,
Christian
