Thank you for your immediate and helpful response...
No, actually I wasn't aware that it was the Japanese version. I just
chose the one with the most recent date and assumed that the "-ja" suffix
indicated something to do with Java support (Japan's ISO country code is
actually "JP" so I didn't even guess perhaps a "-japanese" suffix or an
"00index.txt" file with descriptions could be helpful).
I'm downloading "postgresql-8.0.0-rc2.zip" right now and will post an
update here shortly.
