Paul,

You'd be surprised.

Naw, I was just joshin' ya. I'm a fairly heavy user of Oracle and mySQL, but have considered moving the mySQL stuff to postgres a few times (and its still on the table), and splitting off some of the oracle stuff to it as well, especially with where sun seems to be taking mySQL.

Paul,

You wouldn't be the only one. Attendees at the conference were anxious about the future of MySQL, and kept asking me questions about PostgreSQL.

Of course, this board runs on PostgreSQL.

Here's an amusing talk I did. It's funny if you work in the software biz; otherwise skip it: http://mysqlconf.blip.tv/file/5020400/
