Hi..
I am interested in a SQL interface to Postgres instead of the PostQuel
included with the package. Does anybody know of such a layer on the Net,
which can be modified to fit Postgres. Thanks.

There is an SQL-version of Postgres called Postgres95. Postgres95 is
derived from the last official release (4.2) of POSTGRES. We replace
Postquel with SQL and also remove some features that do not work. The
code size has been reduced by 25% and it runs about 30-50% faster compared
with v4.2 (on the Wisconsin Benchmark).
Unfortunately, this is a pet project of mine and Jolly Chen and we don't have
a scheduled release date. However, if anyone is interested, we will be
happy to provide a you copy.
Postgres95 has been tested on Alpha (OSF 2.1, 3.0), DECStation (Ultrix 4.4),
SPARC (SunOS 4.1.3), SPARC (Solaris 2.4), HP 9000/700 (HPUX 9.0). An NT
port is in the works.

To elaborate on Andrew's pre-announcement, we are seeking beta testers
for Postgres95. In order to be a beta tester, we are asking that you
must be familiar with Postgres 4.2. That is, if you have trouble
installing Postgres 4.2 (or earlier) on your machine, then
Postgres95-beta is definitely not the right package for you to start
with. We are also seeking a wide variety of platforms to test on.
Ideally, we would like beta testers for all the supported platforms
listed above. In addition, if you are already running an unofficial port
of Postgres 4.2 on some other platform, we would especially like
your help in porting Postgres95. We would also like to solicit help on
documentation. If you are interested in being a beta tester, please send
mail to andrew@postgres.berkeley.edu or jolly@cs.berkeley.edu, not to
the entire postgres mailing list.
Beta and final versions of Postgres95 (unlike other Foobar95 products)
will be free and subject to the same copyright as earlier versions of
Postgres, and will DEFINITELY ship in 1995!

Well, Windows '95 will certainly ship in '95. They haven't announced
the full name of the product yet, though: in its final version, it
will be called Windows 2095.
And Linux95 aka Linux 1.2 is out and free and shipping as well already
in 1995.
(sorry, couldn't resist)

I would dearly love to get my hands on that one - I'm running Linux, and am
willing to do the port.

I for one would be very interested in taking a look at this.

I would also like to take a look at the SQL version.
I'd be willing to work on a port to Linux.
