Not me. I've fed and watered PostgreSQL for the better part of a
decade and did so for Oracle for three years. At no point did I want
to switch preference from pgsql ro Oracle. There were some things
Oracle did I wanted to see in pgsql, but the overall package of pgsql
is way better in my opinion. And part of that is NOT putting things
in core before they're ready.
