I am not advocating for promoting commercial software. I am for
addressing one of the most demanded features. If that means that we have
to list commercial products as well, I would accept that.

We have removed and are still in the process of removing more details
form the server project to gborg and pgfoundry. If that strategy is
extended to not talking about demanded features and functionality in our
press releases at all, I have to seriously rethink my position about
what should be included in our release and what not.
