<Title>Summary</Title>

<Para>
<ProductName>Postgres</ProductName>, 
 developed originally in the UC Berkeley Computer Science Department,
 pioneered many of the object-relational concepts
 now becoming available in some commercial databases.
It provides SQL92/SQL3 language support,
 transaction integrity, and type extensibility.
 <ProductName>PostgreSQL</ProductName> is a public-domain,
 open source descendant of this original Berkeley code.
