PostgreSQL beats Oracle and MySQL for Best Database of the Year Award

Developer.com just published their 2008 Product of the Year awards and the audience voted.  For Best Database Tool or Add-in, the nominees were:  Hibernate, JavaDB, MySQL, Oracle Database 10g, and PostgreSQL.devpoy_08sm

Here is the quote from Developer.com:

And the winner is PostgreSQL. This one surprised us and taught us something about our audience base. We need to do a better job of covering this topic! PostgreSQL.org touts this product as "The world's most advanced open source database" and after seeing the votes, they may just be correct.
