[postgis-users] defending postgresql - postgis.

[Paragon Corporation]

OpenStreetMap also runs on PostgreSQL now too (had switched from MySQL),
though I don't think they run on PostGIS.

Of course PostGIS  enjoys preferential treatment as far as if you want to
load OpenStreetMap data into it.  I don't think the tools for other
databases compares.


Let's not forget OpenStreetMap is being picked up by other providers

Of course the other big one: Skype which I think is included in Stefan's
list.
