Re: Postgres VS Oracle

David,

First of all, it's considered very rude to cross-post to 5 different mailing

to more than one list at a time in the future.

You may not be aware, but we have a large French PostgreSQL community:
www.postgresqlfr.org

I know that Jean-Paul and Dimitri have experience in porting applications, so
you should probably contact them to get local help & information on comparing
the two DBMSes.
