Heh. :}

A silly question in this context: If we know of a company that does use
PostgreSQL but doesn't list it anywhere ... can we
tahttp://www.securecomputing.com/techpubsRC.cfm?pid=85ke the liberty
to
publicise this somewhere anyway?

E.g. the control center (
http://www.securecomputing.com/techpubsRC.cfm?pid=85 )
uses postgres, the only official attribution (I've seen the binaries in the
file-system) is that their product uses port 5432 in the manual.

P.S.: This is all really starting to belong to advocacy :}
