- PostgreSQL 8i (though the "i" on Oracle 8i/9i is not "intelligence")
- PostgreSQL/DW [edition], PostgreSQL/BI [edition]
- Postracle? :p
Anyway, I think "PostgreSQL" still has to be part of the name. A new
name just won't have the same impact (unless this is just a project
nickname for developers? Or "PostgreSQL" is trademarked and cannot be
used). I suggest adding some suffix or attribute to PostgreSQL (think
"Pentium IV Emergency Edition").
