-PostgreSQL is a robust, next-generation, Object-Relational DBMS (ORDBMS),
-derived from the Berkeley Postgres database management system. While
-PostgreSQL retains the powerful object-relational data model, rich data types
-and easy extensibility of Postgres, it replaces the PostQuel query language
-with an extended subset of SQL.
-
-The original Postgres code was the effort of many graduate students,
-undergraduate students, and staff programmers working under the direction of
-Professor Michael Stonebraker at the University of California, Berkeley. In
-1995, Andrew Yu and Jolly Chen took on the task of converting the DBMS query
-language to SQL and created a new database system which came to known as
-Postgres95. Many others contributed to the porting, testing, debugging and
-enhancement of the Postgres95 code. As the code improved, and 1995 faded into
-memory, PostgreSQL was born.
-
-PostgreSQL development is presently being performed by a team of Internet
-developers who are now responsible for all current and future development. The
-development team coordinator is Marc G. Fournier (scrappy@PostgreSQL.ORG).
-Support is available from the PostgreSQL developer/user community through the
-support mailing list (questions@PostgreSQL.ORG).
-
-PostgreSQL is free and the complete source is available.
