Congratulations to Brian Hendrickson

Brian Hendrickson of [http://www.megapump.com/ Megapump, Inc.] has won the [http://www.codeproject.com/ Code Project]/[http://www.mainsoft.com/ Mainsoft] ‘[http://www.linuxelectrons.com/article.php/20051011065337234 Race to Linux]’ contest. The Race to Linux challenged developers to port three of Micro$oft’s® open-source ASP.NET starter kits from Windows to Linux using their cross-platform tool of choice. Brian used [http://www.php.net PHP] and [http://www.postgresql.org PostgreSQL] to rewrite Microsoft’s Issue Tracker Starter Kit and deploy it on Linux. Good to see the [http://www.apress.com/book/bookDisplay.html?bID=10016 PHP/PostgreSQL] combo moving forward… and hopefully this is only the first of many indicators of PostgreSQL becoming the cross-platform database of choice.
