Consider this:
The stock market going crazy over Linux stocks
Interbase users are considering moving en-mass to PostgreSQL
Publishers are crawling all over each other to publish a PostgreSQL book
With these signs, it is possible we may be _very_ popular in the near
future. I am not sure this will happen, but I didn't think this would
happen to Linux.
My big question is, what new challenges will we face as we become more
popular?
Do we have the proper license? I know this has the possibility of
opening up a GPL vs. BSD slugfest. However, I will not let such a
discussion get out of control.
