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.

What I would love to see would be the ability to use Sybase/ MSSQL server Transact SQL or Oracle PL/SQL on PostGres ( others too).
Obviously they would be lower performance ( due to different performance characteristics and assumptions) but I don't think there are any major disconnects in functionality...
Would this be easy or even possible?
There are a lot of existing systems out there, it would be good to make it as easy as possible to migrate.
