[Opensim-dev] Bit rot on PGSQL code

Hi all,

The PGSQL code is getting dangerously out of sync with the latest 
improvements in OpenSim, and no one is maintaining it. I don't know how 
many people actually use Postgres as the backend for OpenSim, but if 
this bit rot continues, I will soon start advocating moving this code 
out of core into a 3rd party project for lack of resources to maintain 
it in core up to comparable quality with MySQL and SQLite.

So if anyone here cares for PGSQL and is knowledgeable enough to make it 
work, please send patches. There are multiple outstanding issues in mantis:

and others.

Thanks.
