Re: [HACKERS] MySQL to PostgreSQL for SugarCRM

Well we have a CRM package that does ERP/project
management/ticketing/file sharing etc as well, called EGS
http://egs.sourceforge.net. Although the sf.net page is out of date we
are about to release 1.0 on 1st september to great fanfare! With a new
website et al. It works out of the box on postgres although should
work on others becuase of the DB abstraction layer. It is also being
used by several companies around the World and is released under the
GPL by the company I work for.

If anyone is interested I can give you access to our demo/subversion
repositry please contact me off list if you do and I can give you
details.
