Yes, sorry for omitting the crash.

Great! Excellent. Looking forward to 7.1!
Having just spent last night (midnight to 4 am) installing Oracle, let
me say that I'm going to make my positive best efforts to work with
pgsql.
I was considering using the ACS (http://www.arsdigita.com/ ),
which requries Oracle, but after last night's nightmare, I'm hereby
pledging to work with OpenACS (http://www.openacs.org/ ) which is
a port to Postgres.
