Re: PostgreSQL Windows port strategy

<p>Hi all!<p>Things are very unclear to me. Are we in a personal war with Microsoft and I'm not aware? <p>I don't
reallymuch care what's the OS our product is running on. I care much about our product's high availability, speed,
scalabilityetc. In the last month I saw on this list a lot of opinions regarding the differences between various
operatingsystems. I havent saw opinions regarding the functionalities exposed by our direct competitors: other dmbs. Do
wewant to transform PostgreSQL in the next generation's OS and I am not aware?<p>I can guarantee you good software can
bewritten on Windows too. I can guarantee you that moving PostgreSQL on Windows is the best move PostgreSQL. I can
guaranteeyou a MMC Snap-In for PostgreSQL and a Visual Studio .NET add-in for PostgreSQL can help PostgreSQL becomming
aleader.<p>But discussions like "Windows is a B category platform" and "Windows will die tommorow" and "Linux is the
best"won't lead us on a top position.<p><br /><hr size="1" />Do you Yahoo!?<br /><a
