Dell Store 2 example database ported to PostgreSQL

The Sample Databases project has now released a port of the normal-sized Dell Store 2 (http://linux.dell.com/dvdstore/) database for PostgreSQL.

This is a great database to learn how to query reasonably large tables. The tables are all in the tens of thousands of rows.

Sample Databases Launched

The new sample databases project has now been launched. At the moment it only contains a port of the MySQL world database. In the future it will host many more example and test databases. We welcome all your submissions, especially ports of standard example databases from other database servers.
