I would second this. Most people I know try to say PostgreSQL only until
they install it, then call it Postgres. It is our own fault for having a
difficult name for the software.

If were up to me, we would change back to Postgres as it is even easier
to say than MySQL (less syllables).

I seriously doubt there is any confusion as to whether Postgres ==
PostgreSQL.

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake
