Hello,

I have a question regarding licence policy of PostgrSQL.
I'm developing PostgreSQL-based system which my company has plans to
sell in the nearest future.
For this particular application we need to add some crypting to
database files. Can i make this modifcation without license violation ?

Thanks in advance !

Yes. This is what SRA does, for example.
