It is possible to mainteners of this list to keep this list from
"/$?%/$?/? windows problems? I don't care about windows. The worst
thing never made was porting an excellent product like PostgreSQL to a
poor server OS like windows.

Now, we are invade with users that aren't used to read the manual...
even the howto install readme!!! Users that have problems often relate
to bug in OS...

I thought the topic of this list was to postgresql in general and not
about WINDOWS SPECIFIQ PART.

So the solution is to do another list for them...

My opinion.

Remember the goal is the pervasiveness of PostgreSQL -- regardless of
platform.

Isn't the purpose to promote PostgreSQL? not *nix-only flavors?

Hmm..other open source projects that run on Windows servers... apache,
mysql, php, python, perl, etc etc etc... Porting it to Windows is a
great thing.. the more that open source gets its way into the use of all
markets, the more acceptable it becomes in the mainstream..and the less
control companies like Microsoft have on the markets.

my 2 cents,

Robby

It's very unfair to confuse users of Windows with users who don't
RTFM.

The opinion expressed above is also totally at odds with what I have
come to expect on this list - friendly, professional, expert help,
not to mention reasoned debate.

The PostgreSQL team has not spent a great deal of effort porting the

spoil the reputation of our mailing lists.

If Eric doesn't care about windows, he can ignore discussions related to
it. If he doesn't want to see messages related to it, maybe he can show
his capabilities to RTFM by setting up appropriate procmail filters. Or
does this sound too difficult to you, Eric?
