Re: Postgres DB

Kris,

Does that mean I can download and use the pg74jdbc3.jar that comes with
Postgres 7.4 without any licensing formality.
Is there a contact number where I can call you up?

That would be really appreciated.

Thanks,
Sumita

Sure, it takes a while for JDBC developers to catch up with new backend
functionality.

The JDBC driver is distributed under the same license as postgresql and
downloads from http://jdbc.postgresql.org/download.html are encumbered
with no more license restrictions than the jar file distributed with the

7.3.4 server.
