        What will also be helpful is for people to see working systems in
action that use PostgreSQL in the backend.  I've got a few projects that are
in the works, but nothing that's ready for public consumption yet (but once I
do, I will certainly let the Advocacy group know about it and will be
included a link from a section of the web site to both the PostgreSQL home
page and the Advocacy page).
