Hi all:

I am new to PostgreSQL DB, however I have years experience with Oracle 8i
and MS SQL. I am in the process to promot PostgreSQL to my future client,
due to the cost. I am just wondering if overall people feels frustrated with
PostgreSQL or feels happey with it.

I know MySQL is simpiler and cheap. With my years experience with enterprise
level DB like Oracle and MS SQL, I just don't feel right with MySQL. I love
stored procedure. Sorry to MySQL lovers.

I have the following questions. Please reply me offline, so the mailling
list won't get flood. Thanks!
1. What is your favorite GUI tool for PostgreSQL?
2. In your organization, do you have someone who works as full time
PostgreSQL DBA?
3. What is the biggest challenge you have with PostgreSQL? Administration or
Programming?
4. Overall, do you like PostgreSQL? Would you recommend it over MySQL?
5. How often do your PostgreSQL run into problem or crash? Are most of the
problem caused by PostgreSQL itself?

Any suggestion and help are welcome. Thanks!
