Seamus,
Are you using postGIS by chance? I am working on a set of tools that
might not be network analysis, but we may have some overlap that we
could share.

I too am seeking independence from esri, and postgres extendability (all
functions can be written in C, or several other languages) seems to me
to be a potential for high quality, open source GIS tools. Already there
are several geo-processing routines out there acting in
postgres/postgis. What type of analysis functions are you looking for?

Rob
