List pgsql-general
Thanks everyone. After all the good things I heard about Postgres, I was surprised to see this article; and the point on storage concerned me.
I am glad to see that the article was wrong, not only on the storage engine count, but also on others.
Thanks for the feedback.

Too true.  There's only so many times people can be confronted with
"Defend yourselves!" before they start ignoring it.  On the flip
side, when you approach with "Tell me, what advantages does Postgres
have to offer?" you'll find many people all too willing to step up
with pride.
