Actually it was not Red Hat's doing.  I made the switch after reading
all the licensing info on Mysql's site and all the posts involved.  It
seemed much safer than having to worry about getting a commercial
license from mysql for internal applications or ones that face
customers.  Did not need the hassle.  I have found postgresql to be very
good so far.  And there is no quibbling on the licensing of it.
