And it has real long term support. While I'm currently using Ubuntu LTS 10.04.1, I know that LTS to Ubuntu isn't nearly as big of a commitment as long term support for Centos / RedHat is. I've seen bugs reported right after 8.04 LTS came out, bugs that were never addressed or fixed. Many of them affected me. The standard answer was "try 8.10, try 9.xx, try etc..." Imagine if you were running RHEL 5 or Centos 5 and they told you to "try fedora" for a fix. No way. Ubuntu still has a long way to go to catch up to that level of commercial friendly support and bug fixing. But if you're willing to put up with their awful bug fixing pace, and the release, as released, works for you, then it's an ok option. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
