I didn't play enough with d6 to say anything definitive but with the exception of too long string not being automatically truncated in some logs table (access and watchdog) installation went smooth. Modules are another issue... there you may find more problems but fortunately often due to SQL standard ignorance rather than mysqlism/postgrelism issues. Generally it is not hard to "patch" drupal to work properly but sometimes it is annoying to maintain your own patch till they are integrated by upstream. If you forget about people regularly shouting to drop postgresql support because it delay drupal releases... drupal is reasonably postgresql friendly... even if it could get better. unless he run into a lot of autocast breakage... -- Ivan Sergio Borgonovo http://www.webthatworks.it
