We never actually enjoyed any of the features of PostgreSQL since we
had to support the lowest common denominator (sqlite). So PostgreSQL
was nothing but a source of headaches for us.

We might've been able to standardize on PostgreSQL, but its lack of
embedded functionality would make it a bit more difficult. Mostly
we're standardizing on MySQL since Aides stepped up and wrote the
code.
