Let me ask a question, how many people who are against a name change now
think we should have done it before we released 8.0? Because the same
arguments I hear now are the ones I heard then. There was a feeling
pre-8.0 that we were too entrenched to make a change, but in hindsight
we were not that entrenched, but now we are really entrenched. What I
think we will find in two years it that many will wish we had made the
change pre-8.3 because in two years we will be even more entrenched than
we are now.
The bottom line is that the pronunciation/marketing problem with the
name "PostgreSQL" is not going to change --- it is only going to get
worse.
