I have looked around, but not found the standard. Where I have looked, it seems to be:

    t/f,
     ..... not........
    true/flase
    0/1
    yes/no

Thanks. I know that there are workarounds, I just want to "prove" that
0/1 is not standards compliant. If I can do that I am pretty sure that
the developer will have nothing against changing to true/false.

Right not he just things postgresql must be broken because 0/1 works in
MySQL ... But he's pretty good when it comes to fixing things because
they don't follow standards. So if I can show him his SQL isn't
standards compliant he'll probably happily fix it.
