I would like to compile a list of links to sites where the use of PostgreSQL
is discussed as a backend for GIS applications. Our organization currently
runs its GIS from a set of Sun servers using Oracle and ArcINFO. The
maintenance cost for this arrangement is, as you can imagine, prohibitive.

Is anyone out there in the Open Source community developing comparable GIS
tools (to ArcINFO) that will allow us to migrate to Intel machines running
PostgreSQL as the database?

Any tips or leads are most appreciated. Thanks.
