I have downloaded the Advocacy email archive for August and September
and looked at all emails with the subject "naming". I read each email
and totalled the opinions of all the posters. Of course, this is not
scientific but it does represent everyone on advocacy who felt the need
to comment on the thread.

The totals are 15 for no change and 30 for a change to "Postgres". The
number who favored "PostgresQL" were minimal. If you have additions or
corrections, please email me privately and I will repost the list.
