Re: PostgreSQL vs. MySQL: fight

With much appreciated contributions from others including Chris Browne in
particular, I've now finished up the original scope of what I wanted to
cover on this topic:

http://developer.postgresql.org/index.php/Why_PostgreSQL_instead_of_MySQL

I tried to keep the text punchy by hitting the important points and
leaning heavily on references in lieu of trying to include all the details
in the document. I feel like the "Join Complexity" section is still a
little lightweight and could use more input. I'm happy with the rest, but
they could certainly benefit from some review by others. Josh in
particular should take a look at how I covered the recent Sun benchmark
results to make sure I'm fairly characterizing those.

The "Application Support" section didn't really fit the rest of the
document once it shaped up, I moved what had been written onto the
discussion page; something may come out of that later.

I intend to keep this active on the Wiki for another week for continued
proofreading and hopefully some useful feedback; consider August 10th the
deadline for updates. At that point, I'll repackage this for techdocs and
then pull it out of the developer site.
