[OSM-talk] Postgresql switchover

[Steve Singer]

Some of the Postgresql folks are looking for some info for advocacy purposes 
on the change to postgresql.

I suspect they want to know

A) The main reasons that motivated the change
B) Someone who they can quote as being from OSM. (ie for press materials/use 
cases)

If anyone is interested  reply directly to the below message, or if you'd 
rather me act as a conduit I can do that as well.

Steve

Can we get somebody from OSM to talk about this on the record?

Cheers,
