+Hi All,
+
+
+Since I last posted to this list I have done some work
+on a multi-threaded port of Postgres 7.0.2 that I have been kicking
+around for a while.  There has been some mild interest
+in this in the past so I thought I might try and start a sourceforge
+project with what I have so far.
+
+>From past discussions, it is clear to me that a direct port
+of postgres which uses threads instead of processes is not a
+good idea, how about an embedded version that uses threads.
+A multi-threaded postgres might be good for that.
+The version I am working on is slower in terms of transaction
+throughput than the current postgres but it uses less system
+resources and does not require shared memory.
+
+I know it is possible to embed the current postgres but I
+believe that is a single user system.
+
+Comments?
