Postgres 2.03 is Now Available
Postgres Version 2, Release 0.3 is now available for ftp distribution from
postgres.berkeley.edu. Version 2.03 includes many bug fixes, as well as
a now supported port to DECstation 3100's and 5000's under Ultrix 4.0 and
higher.
Postgres also runs on Sun 3 and Sparc architecture machines, and unsupported
ports are included to the Sequent multiprocessor as well as DECstations
running Ultrix less than 4.0.
If you would like the current system, you can get it in
one of two ways:
(1) Send a check payable to the Regents of the University
of California for $150.00 to:
Postgres Project
521 Evans Hall
University of California
Berkeley, CA 94720.
Indicate in your accompanying letter whether you want
the system on a 9-track tape at 1600 BPI, at 6250 BPI,
on a cartridge tape for SUN shoeboxes (QIC 24 format),
or on a TK50 DEC cartridge tape.
(2) FTP the code to your site over the net by typing
the following bracketed text without brackets. You
should see similar output.
