Sadly, it's behind a pay-wall until December 17. In case it wasn't clear from earlier, I count the entire SE-Linux effort as a failure. We might get something halfway decent out of more comprehensive and finer grained access controls, but SE-PostgreSQL has not shown any evidence of being viable, not least because it depends on exactly one hard-working, dedicated, but in the end *single* person.

What happened when you tried to comment? When I did, I hit the pay-wall.

You didn't hit any pay-wall for comments, only the fact that you need to have an account on the site. -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc.

As was pointed out earlier, the pay-wall is for direct responses to the article, but not for responses to responses.
