This is a very bad message. Like for the "users" page, it should be removed until someone takes the time to gather relevant and up-to-date info. Yeah. It was a good start to things back in the day, but people ran out of time/effort to update it. :/ > Maybe one way to do it would be to continue the work done on the "case study" page : > > https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Case_Study_Links > > Every time one of us sees a PostgreSQL use case in the media, on a blog or a conference, he/she adds it to the wiki.

That would lead to a curated list fairly decently. :) The entries on that page at the moment are a bit old, but that’s fixable. With these two VMware blog posts from a few months ago: https://blogs.vmware.com/vsphere/2016/03/getting-comfortable-with-vpostgres-and-the-vcenter-server-appliance-part-1.html https://blogs.vmware.com/vsphere/2016/05/getting-comfortable-with-vpostgres-and-the-vcenter-server-appliance-part-2.html They seem like a decent fit for the page. They’re the one’s describing why VMware vCenter is moving from Windows+(MSSQL/Oracle) to a self contained Linux+PostgreSQL appliance. Thinking a new “Virtualisation” heading, and putting them there?
