Hi,

I am interested to hear from anyone who has utilised the ability of postgres 
for holding historical information especially for larger databases and or 
database with a high transaction rate.

Has postgres been used as the attribute database for any graphics package. I 
am thinking here of the possibility of using postgres in a GIS application?

Any comments or infoemation most welcome.

regards

Wolfgang Effenberg      email wolf@ironbark.ucnv.deu.au
