I wrote a "Porting from Oracle PL/SQL" document that was added to the
PL/pgSQL documentation in 7.1. It has lots of useful info on how to port
to PL/pgSQL.
You can find this document under the Programmer's manual on the PG 7.1
documentation (development docs).
This week I will change that document to become more generic and add
information on how to change some Oracle'isms (e.g. nvl, decode, etc.) to
PostgreSQL, sticking to the standard where possible.
