Hello,
I would like to note, before there is any miscommunication that GB was
only concerned with the way the name was presented. E.g;
PostgreSQL Great Bridge version 7.1
The only thing that have requested is that we be more clear about the
product by stating:
Great Bridge PostgreSQL version 7.1.
I believe they have a valid point in want to protect their name.
On the flip side, I hope that you guys find the book we are developing a
useful one.

Instead of asking why a piece of software is using "1970s technology,"
start asking why software is ignoring 30 years of accumulated wisdom.
