LPI-Japan to start PostgreSQL certfication

Hi,

LPI-Japan, a non-profit distributor of LPIC(Linux Professional
Institute Certification) in Japan will start "OSS-DB" exam from July
1st, 2011. LPI-Japan is known as one of the largest distributor of
LPIC in the world(according to LPI-Japan they have distributed 164k
LPIC so far).

According to LPI-Japan, OSS-DB will be ready for several open source
databases in the future. However the initial version will only support
PostgreSQL(!)

To develop OSS-DB, many companies, including NEC, Hitachi, Fujitsu,
NTT and SRA OSS, have been working with LPI-Japan.

I hope OSS-DB will significantly contribute to making PostgreSQL more
popular in Japan.
