Hi all,
in my opinion MySql as previously said is a lot easier to administrate, and
more "developer friendly" than postgre - even if its process managements is
far from being good (some single query may bring it down - as far as I could
see so far using 5.1.22 and many previous versions... ). However one has to
think about the future of both these 2 DBMS and since Sun bought MySql
lately I'm pretty sure anything MySql lakes compared against postgre will
soon be caught up.

This is getting very off-topic, but Sun buying MySQL AB has so far
hindered the improvement of the MySQL database engine. See the blog
postings by Monty Widenius (creator of MySQL) and other Sun/MySQL AB
engineers, where they acknowledge that version 5 was not fit for release
and that version 6 is little better. If Widenius is to be believed, then
the release of known to be buggy versions of MySQL are down to pressure
from Sun to get something, anything, to market. A cynic would say that's
always been part of MySQL's problems, and that it's generally true of
most commercial software (open or closed source).
