Yep.  Isn't it very typical that everything always get postponed?  And I
think I'm even more extreme than others.

Anyway, I actually think those dates still are realistic.

Both me and Jesse is using mysql, so we will not provide a PostgreSQL port
- but we really hope it will be trivial to fix, and we hope *somebody*
will fix this so we can included it in the 2.0 release. :)

Different patches exists, somebody out there is running at postgreSQL.
Anyway, I'd suggest waiting some days.

Oh yeah, I should be hacking now instead of answering this question.
Anyway, I really have kept my fingers away from the rt mailinglists the
last week ... I'm really prioritying 2.0 now ;)
