I don't understand why people express concern about the development
work here. You know that the "raw iron" is really hacked up Linux
or Free BSD. So the porting effort is getting the latest release
and pulling out the relevant parts.

I think that administration and marketing issues are what's of
interest here. Getting a database to work isn't that hard, given
a free O/S of reasonable quality (and friends that use Linux say
that it's a lot better than that).
