Re: Biggest competitor for the database is the customer himself!!

For awhile, some some confused soul using the email name of "Al Dev" was posting similar messages.

I wish them luck. I just wish they would find some other way to publicize it. :) Terry Carmen wrote: > > On Sat, 20 Sep 1997 00:05:39 GMT, ttoews@telusplanet.net (Tony Toews) > wrote: > > >Deepa Vasudevan <deepav@pol.net> wrote: > > > >>The result is PostgreSQL database.
