Happy Birthday, PostgreSQL!

As of today, the Elephant is offically 12 years old.
On July 8, 1996, Marc Fournier set up the first public CVS server of the ten-year-old POSTGRES code. A small group of volunteer hackers started improving it, soon releasing a steady stream of improvements.
Today, PostgreSQL is one of the most popular SQL/relational databases in the world and respected throughout the industry for maturity, clean code, and unique advanced features.
So, happy birthday, PostgreSQL!
