Thread: Support issues
Hi, I joined this mailing list on Tuesday. And today, Friday, I still haven't seen a single post. So I'll ask a question, and excuse me if it's out of form ... I swapped out Oracle with PostgreSQL about one month ago. And I pretty happy about it. I still need to sell the idea to managment in our firm. We're still prototyping. While I feel confortable supporting Postgres myself with the abondant on-line help available, and where that fails, looking at the code itself -- the company would be happier not relying on one man to handle it. Are there support contracts available for PostgreSQL? I know Great Bridges just closed there doors. That is sadding. Thank you. David Link Programmer VNU Entertainment White Plains, NY

I was about to say that your mailer setup must be broken --- my mail logs show more than ninety posts in pgsql-general since Tuesday. However, the mailing list archive engine at http://fts.postgresql.org/db/mw/ doesn't see 'em either; and earlier today I was wondering why it couldn't find a pgsql-ports posting I wanted from a couple days ago. So it's getting a rather selective subset of posts too. Marc, I think there is something rotten in Denmark: certain mail lists are not getting sent out to certain addresses, looks like. regards, tom lane

I'm seeing a behaviour I'd describe as "bursty". A day of silence, followed by a deluge of messages, followed by silence ... No ascertainable pattern. I looked for problems on my end first, but it's only affecting traffic from postgres.org. -Brad
