Welcome aboard!

This list is actually for pgAdmin which is just the GUI admin tool
for the PostgreSQL RDBMS. You might want to sign-up to one of the
postgresql lists such as the general list for questions.
From your posts it looks like you understand the principles of
relational databases which PostgreSQL actually implements rather than
just paying lip service. And if you think relationally you'll find
PostgreSQL a lot more fun to work with. For migrating from MySQL it's
probably worth noting that there is an option for exporting MySQL in
nearly PostgreSQL compatible syntax. I don't know if there is a
migration guide but there probably should be.

Good luck with your migration!
