PostgreSQL integration

Have there been any attempts at integrating with PostgreSQL with ShareTribe? I am currently attempting that, by putting conditional statements in the migrations to neutralize the MySQL specific migrations. If anyone else has tried this, please reply to this post and share your experiences.

Hi,

while it might be currently technically possible to migrate from MySQL to PostgreSQL I want to be clear that this is not a design goal for the Sharetribe platform. We are currently developing some new functionality that builds upon MySQL features that cannot be easily ported to other data stores (not yet OS but coming) such as tapping into MySQL binary log for data integration. So I advice to not go into this direction if you wish to maintain future compatibility with the master line.
