I think there are people around, but maybe they don't want to move etc.
If a PostgreSQL job where ever to show up in Milwaukee, I would apply
for it in a heartbeat.
Another thing is this, how hard could it possibly be for a MS SQL DBA or
Oracle DBA to pick up using PostgreSQL?
I don't think it would take a decent admin of any database to come up to
speed in a very short time as long as they were interested in doing so.
