Dear Bruce,
Taking the example of pgAdmin III, which reached nearly one million hits in
December (http://www.pgadmin.org/stats/webalizer), nothing seems impossible
for PostgreSQL.
Why not create an all-in-one bundle offering PostgreSQL, Apache, Php and
PhpPgAdmin for Win32 and ... mass-release it.
There is no need to create a complete installer. There could be a single
installer executing other installers (like it is sometimes the case in the
Win32 world). So that installers remain different.
A single web page like "http://win.postgresql.org" in 40 languages is enough
to mass-release PostgreSQL.
With an installer and a single web page, PostgreSQL Win32 could quickly reach
one million downloads every month.
There is no need to look for complicated strategies. Every month, there can be
10% more downloads. In the end, people will even forget the name of MySQL.
Cheers,
Jean-Michel
