Never underestimate how much you can do just by being a part of your local
community. I'm giving a quick session tonight here in Denver to compare
MySQL, Postgresql and Firebird.
While I personally prefer Postgresql there are some things MySQL is
particularly suited to as well, and some things that firebird is suited to
as well.
A fair and valid comparison of their features is a useful way of "selling"
Postgresql to the people who need it.
