SRA/Japan, my employer and a big PostgreSQL support company in Japan,
has announced they have purchased TurboLinux:
http://www.turbolinux.com/news/pr/020820.html
Here is a summary from someone on Slashdot:
* Turbolinux Inc. sold Turbolinux Japan K.K. (its Japanese
subsidary) to SRA. (This is the $1 mil. transaction according to
Slashdot Japan [slashdot.jp] (in Japanese))
* Turbolinux Japan K.K. will become the new Turbolinux Inc.
* Turbolinux Inc. also sold all its Linux distribution business,
logo, trademarks to SRA, but the price is not yet disclosed.
* SRA is also planning to buy the Chinese and Korean joint ventures
between Turbolinux Inc. and local companies.
* The old Turbolinux Inc. will change its name to CenterRex and
focus on software it developed like PowerCockpit or EnFusion.
Not sure how this effects PostgreSQL usage, but it certainly could.
