Agreed.  This list at the moment has the largest agregate set of DB
users on it though so I thought I'd try my luck here.  I'm importing
the postgres source into rubynet at the moment and plan on tracking
its changes and progress there since it doesn't look like postgres is
under any kind of revision control.  I'll let folks know here when I
figure out the problem.  FWIW, I'm writing unit tests for postgres
that'll run under rubytest.  -sc
