I searched Delphi for a PostgreSQL forum to realized that there is no
PostgreSQL forum at Delphi. Is there any problem is I open one? Should I
contact someone or ask permision? I would want to open one forum at
Delphi.com.

Re: Delphi PostgreSQL Forum

Well, I'm still waiting for any advise about what rights I may have to start
it. If I can do it without permission or if I need one. I have received none
on that. Maybe there were some, but almost immediately after I sent this to
the list, there was a problem with the list and I didn't receive email from
it. Maybe someone replied, but I didn't receive it. My concern is about any
possible copyright violation. I know that pgsql is open source software, but
I don't know anything about starting something without actual owner's
permission.

Re: Delphi PostgreSQL Forum

AFAIK, no one posted a reply to it. I don't really see
any copyright violations or anything like that by just
starting up a mailing list/forum for helping Delphi/PgSQL
users. But, I dunno :).

Let me know if anything comes out of this...I plan on using
both pgsql and delphi (using delphi currently) for my next
project.

Thanks,

Re: Delphi PostgreSQL Forum

Maybe, here is a confusion about the word "Delphi". Everywhere I use
"Delphi" in this emails, I mean the Delphi web site that has to do with
forums about anything. What I want to do is to open a forum in
www.delphi.com for pgsql discussions.

While no one is going to stop you from doing so, I have to wonder what's
the point? The people who know about Postgres are hanging out in these
mailing lists, not on Delphi. If you did manage to get any useful
discussion going in a separate list, seems like it'd just act to
fragment the Postgres community. It's already hard enough to know which
list to post a particular question in --- why make that problem worse
by starting up a completely independent list?

Re: Delphi PostgreSQL Forum

I have been thinking in that same thing. I've been looking on how much Linux
forums and mailing lists are there and how difficult is to get the
information that I want. So I already realized that this is a bad idea. I
was looking mainly for a place where there are archives so that I may be
able to search with a local search engine. I found that at Geocrawler.com,
so there is no use in opening a new pgsql forum. Thanks.

Hello, Daryl!

Take a look at the Dephi Components Zeos Database Objects for PostgreSQL. If
you are familiar with delphi TDataSet you will be right at home with ZDBO
components.
