Hi,
I am sure this is not the best place to ask this, but I cannot
seem to figure out where else to ask. I am looking into PostgreSQL
for use in a commerical package. Is there a charge for using
PostgreSQL this way, and if so, how much does it cost?
Thanks,
Glenn

There is no charge for using PostgreSQL in any way, shape or
form...the copyright falls under Berkeley style, which basically says use
to your hearts content, just leave this copyright intact...

ACK! Take that back!!! Postgres is free software, not GNU crap.

Nope. It's the Berserkely license.
Free for use.
More so than if it was under the GPL. All you are required to do is keep
the copyright intact.

Wash your mouth out with soap, then use steel wool...PostgreSQL
was *never* built under the GPL and never will be. Blasphemer!!

Pardon this ignorant soul, but why so much GNU bashing? I understand
that PostgreSQL choose a different licensing method, and that it is a good
one, but GNU's not really that bad. I mean how many times do you think the
PostgreSQL source has been compiled by GNU compilers?

Not GNU bashing, GPL bashing. *Big* difference, in some of our
minds. There is a reason that Netscape didn't put themselves under GPL
when they went OpenSource...its good for everyone *but* the developer
themselves...
I run FreeBSD at home for many reasons...one of which is that it
doesn't fall under GPL, unlike some of our brethren out there...
