Well, the URL pointed to doesn't seem to contain the promised
information anyway. There is an account in German at
<http://www.pro-linux.de/news/2004/7441.html> and a picture of the
trophy at
<http://www.inf.tu-dresden.de/~nk671652/_lit/slides/20041030-171608-083.html>
(taken at a different event that I went to after LWE). The current
issue of Linux Magazin (Germany) also contains details. "PostgreSQL 8"
beat "MySQL 5.0" by 48% to 30% or so.
