Large scale PostgreSQL deployment.

Not strictly on topic but I guess it is interesting for all of us
anyway. I work doing consulting job for a company called DBA Engenharia
de Sistemas that works as a contractor for a brazilian government
project called "Cadastramento Único" which is a project to centralize
all social-related government records into a single database.

This project has a program called "Cadastramento Único Offline" and the
lasted version (version 6) has 2 components: A client and a server. The
server part is simply a repackaged PostgreSQL 8.0.1 distribution and is
being made available for Windows and Linux. All cities are required to
run this software so there are more than 5000 PostgreSQL servers running
due it.
