PostgreSQL is a robust, next-generation, Object-Relational DBMS (ORDBMS), derived from the Berkeley Postgres database management system. "PostgreSQL is one of the best-managed open source projects out there" a friend-in-the-know told me about 2 years ago, so today we feature a mini-interview with five members of the PostgreSQL team about their plans on the popular DB.

I'm looking forwards to their windows port. After reading about Firebird, MySQL,and MSSQL comparitively, I am excited about something in the free market that competes at a higher level and will be available for windows. Not everyone can afford MSSQL server and my clients will be happy to hear that they have another option. Long live competition!
On a side note, regardless of their products power, they seem like cocky ass-holes. That wasn't very professional of them... bad form!
