Peter Eisentraut, a core contributor to PostgreSQL is joining Sun!  To quote from his blog post:

"Sun has been a valuable contributor to the PostgreSQL project for a number of years now, and I am looking forward to joining them in this effort. I am glad that I will be able to continue my personal role in the PostgreSQL project with the support of the great resources that Sun provides."

Beat that for choice - even with our acquisition of MySQL, you still have a choice, as always!

Solaris Cluster Express 6/08 is now available for download!  You can
download the DVD image here.


What is new in this release?

*  This release runs on OpenSolaris Nevada build 86. The version of the
Sun Management Centre is now 3.1.

*  The HA agent for Solaris Containers is now enhanced to include
support for the Solaris 9 Branded Zones on SPARC platform. This
is very useful for those customers who still need to run some
applications on Solaris 9 while taking advantage of the new features of
Solaris 10 and above.


* The HA agent for PostgreSQL Database is now ehanced to support WAL
shipping.  This feature greatly enhances the deployment of PostgreSQL
database in Enterprise deployments.



* Support for Solaris Containers configured with exclusive IP is
included in this release.


* The SCX Geographic Edition is enhanced to support Oracle Data Guard
based replication.


* This release also contains the mandatory bug fixes and other minor
enhancements not mentioned above.



Stay tuned for more milestones along the open source journey!
