I see what you mean. But I was automatically 
reminded of PL/SQL (not necessarily a pleasant
memory), so I guess I assumed subconsciously
it was a database tool.

Anyhow, I get the impression that if Guy can't
post in pure Ruby, he would rather use French. ;)

Personally I am glad I don't have to post in a
language other than my native tongue.

Maybe we can all post our announcements in a
Ruby-like pidgin from now on:

  plruby.is_a?(database_tool)  # true
  plruby.for?(PostgreSQL)      # true
  plruby.docs.languages        # [Ruby, Francais]
  plruby.license               # whatever

Cheers,
Hal
