Sun has recently released a case study that was done with OmniTI
(http://www.sun.com/emrkt/srsc/postgresql.html) . Folks have mentioned
putting OmniTI on the website before; as this perticular case study focus's
on both solaris and postgresql, I am thinking of adding OmniTI under the
featured users list with a pointer to the pdf, as it fits in more with the
types of articles we have featured on that list. Any objections?
