FWIW, I'm considering doing a lot of the shilling for 9.0 as "Postgres
9". It looks better on a t-shirt design. So I fully support exploiting
the alias. I just think that a change of the official name of the
project is too much trouble and does not provide clear marketing gains
the way, say, doing more case studies would.

Currently it appears that Greg is the only one who really cares about a
name change; other people seem to be OK with the whole "official
nickname" concept. So, time to drop this again I think. Greg can bring
it up again for 10.0. ;-)
