Gee, I didn't see that. Thanks. The new paragraph reads:
The Postgres code was taken by Illustra and developed into a commercial
product. (Illustra was later purchased by Informix and integrated into
Informix's Universal Server.) Two Berkeley graduate students, Jolly
Chen and Andrew Yu, added SQL capabilities to Postgres, and called it
Postgres95(1994-1995). They left Berkeley, but Jolly continued
maintaining Postgres95, which had an active mailing list.

I used:
http://s2k-ftp.CS.Berkeley.EDU:8000/
Choose 'database systems'. Also inside that tree is:
http://db.cs.berkeley.edu/source.html
Which mentions Postgres, Postgres95, and Mariposa, and Ingres. I have
asked him to add us to the "Other Databases" page Paul maitians.

I may have that somewhere, though the start of development was at the
beginning of July, perhaps July 3rd.
