  <Title>Summary</Title>

  <Para>
   <ProductName>Postgres</ProductName>, 
   developed originally in the UC Berkeley Computer Science Department,
   pioneered many of the object-relational concepts
   now becoming available in some commercial databases.
   It provides SQL92/SQL3 language support,
   transaction integrity, and type extensibility.
   <ProductName>PostgreSQL</ProductName> is a public-domain, open source descendant
   of this original Berkeley code.
