PostgreSQL Support
PostgreSQL is a freeware database server that is user
developed, maintained and supported. It was originally
known as Postgres, then as Postgres95. It is not ANSI
SQL compliant but it is getting closer with every release.
For support on PostgreSQL, look in the following places:
* ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/
* http://www.postgresql.org/
* Text files in directory /usr/src/pgsql.
* Text files in directory /usr/src/pgsql/docs.
* The FAQ, located in /usr/src/pgsql/doc/FAQ. The
latest version may be found at
http://www.postgresql.org/ under documentation.
* Digests of all of the PostgreSQL mailing lists are
archived at ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/majordomo/.
* The mailing list, which are described below.
Support Mailing Lists:
* Announce for announcements.
* Ports for OS-specific bugs.
* Bugs for other unsolved bugs.
* Questions for general discussion.
Mailing Lists for Developers:
* Hackers for server internals discussion.
* Docs for the documentation project.
* Patches for patches and discussion.
* Mirrors for mirror site announcements.

you attempt the port, check the archives for this
area to see if someone else has already done it.

Questions
* This is a general discussion area for users.
* Outside of compile, acceptance test and bug
problems, most new users who don't want to
contribute to development or documentation will
probably only be interested in this mailing list.
* All non-bug related questions regarding PostgreSQL's
version of SQL should be restricted to this area.

involve bugs or failed compiles should be restricted
to this area.
* Please note that many of the developers monitor this
area.

* This list is for the discussion of current
development issues, problems and bugs and the
discussion of proposed new features.
* If people in the other lists don't know the answer
