I should point out that we inherited GPL'd code, thus "which license"
isn't an issue. If someone asks me why we don't use the BSD license I
have a very simple answer for them.

Which should be the case with PG. The original authors released it
under the Berkely license and "which license" shouldn't be an issue. I
still don't understand why more needs to be said. If people are too
clueless to understand this, let them remain clueless and ignore them.

IMHO, that is.
