Agreed ... IMHO, all the arguments about 'long vs short term'are *very* myopic
and don't address any of the marketing efforts that ppl have / are *paying* for
with real cash ...
The only ppl that will benefit from this are those that *are* using Postgres in
their marketing right now, since it won't cost them a cent ... but, of course,
those are also the ones that *have the money* to throw away ...
