We used to include the Postgres and certain other JDBC drivers in the
trunk. There isn't a license issue (there is with MySQL, but not with
Postgres).
The issue that we ran into is that you have to have the right JDBC
driver version for the database version you are using, and if they
don't match you'll run into funny problems. We had enough complaints
about such problems on the mailing lists that we decided it would be
better if people downloaded the JDBC driver with their database rather
than including one.

Hi all,
why don't we have the postgres JDBC driver directly in the trunk ?
Once again, i forgot to put it in the project...
Do I have to create a JIRA issue to make it become real ? Or is it a
license problem ?
