Hi Andy,

   I would like to clarify though that my opinions are generic, not thinking of a name change whatsoever. Whether we will eventually change the name or not, this process is good for PostgreSQL.

   The real process of name change IMHO is another separate topic which requires planning and time (maybe this is task 0 of that process). :)

Ciao,
Gabriele

I also like the direction it sets, and the slow, easy way it begins the migration process.

I really like it (I think I have actually always expressed my favours for it).

Actually, I believe that in the next promotional material that the Italian community will produce, we will clearly state something like: "PostgreSQL, or simply Postgres, is ..." . And we could use this 'message' whenever suitable in conferences, workshops, webpages, etc.

Ciao,
