From time to time someone tells us that we'd be lots more successful
if only we had a more user-friendly project name than "PostgreSQL".
Right at the moment, I'm quite happy to be using a name that no one
else would want ...

(I feel bad for the Firebird-the-database folks, btw --- sheesh,
the slashdot discussion can't even get straight that they are
Firebird not FirebirdSQL.)

regards, tom lane
