+ This chapter describes the embedded <acronym class="acronym">SQL</acronym> package
+ for <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span>. It was written by
+ Linus Tolke (<code class="email">&lt;<a class="email" href="mailto:linus@epact.se">linus@epact.se</a>&gt;</code>) and Michael Meskes
+ (<code class="email">&lt;<a class="email" href="mailto:meskes@postgresql.org">meskes@postgresql.org</a>&gt;</code>). Originally it was written to work with
+ <acronym class="acronym">C</acronym>. It also works with <acronym class="acronym">C++</acronym>, but
+ it does not recognize all <acronym class="acronym">C++</acronym> constructs yet.
+ </p><p>
+ This documentation is quite incomplete. But since this
+ interface is standardized, additional information can be found in
+ many resources about SQL.
