I'm with Killes on this one, somewhat grudgingly, but I came around after the last debate on the topic.<br><br>I now do all my Drupal development on pgSQL. Then I run code into production on MySQL. Think of it as a development "best practice" on the order of simpletests.
<br><br>Sadly, I've been working on other projects and not core.<br><br>Also sadly, I started down this path because no one else would test my modules on pgSQL.<br><br>For us Mac users, the Marc Liyanage package (of course) is simple to configure.
