andthink that the short name is Postgre. Sounded awfully, especially in Russian, tied to fix neighbours. With
PostgresQLthey will think that the short name is Postgres and this is good. Also will be opinion that PostgreQL =

There was a very long thread on -advocacy about this:
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/200709021633490000%402178418992
It ended up(sort of) with PostgreSQL as the official name and Postgres
as 'official' secondary/alternate name. Can't remember if it was this
thread or another where naming questions got spun off into a separate
list in order to prevent a repeat endless discussion. All of this is the
long way of saying I doubt anyone will want to go down this path again.
