Hi,

I tried to install OpenInteract (www.openinteract.org) but failed
because obviously postgresql seems to truncate the columnames to 31
character. Is there a way to have longer columnnames under postgresql?

opensci=# create table ThisIsAReallyReallyReallyReallyReallyReallyReallyReallyReallyReallyReallyReallyLongTableName (test int);
NOTICE: identifier "thisisareallyreallyreallyreallyreallyreallyreallyreallyreallyreallyreallyreallylongtablename" will be truncated to "thisisareallyreallyreallyreally"
CREATE
opensci=#

grateful for any hints,
regards Andreas
