I have been considering tackling Postgres and Picasso ports
to 386bsd, but wanted to first ask if anyone has already done
this, has tried unsuccessfully, or thinks there is a better
solution to database needs.

Please e-mail me suggestions for a different database to 
port if you wish, and if I get enoguh response, I'll do
that instead of postgres.

Please include in your message what the system you
suggest offers in comparison to others.

If you have already ported a DBMS, please let me
know and I'll summarize. (Also let me know where source
or binaries can be located :D)
