This is so very true.  We didn't plan on using PostgreSQL for all our
stuff but for the IAWG contract we didn't have a budget to buy an Oracle
box for an offsite developer (me <grin>).  So figuring we could switch
to Oracle for production, I developed the backend server stuff against
pg.  Everything went so well and performance was acceptable that the
client went thumbs up on using pg on production.
