*******************************************************************************************
The PostgreSQL community is committed to creating and maintaining the best,
most reliable, open-source multi-purpose standards based database, and with
it, promote free and open source software world wide.

Ultimately, PostgreSQL database is a gift to Humanity serving freedom,
knowledge and equal access to information, and as such belongs to every
Human.
*******************************************************************************************

PostgreSQL is "transcendantal", which means it goes "beyond" the original
concept of its creators. People began working on it for various reasons (for
professional needs, because of open-source code, to have fun) ... and
ultimately it becomes a gift to Humanity.

My feeling is that the PostgreSQL community is making history without even
noticing it. You are all heroes my friends...

Cheers,
Jean-Michel POURE
