Yes that is correct but I think they commit back to contrib before they 
release.

Realistically, although I did not used to agree, I believe that the only 
that that should come with PostgreSQL is PostgreSQL and required items 
for PostgreSQL.

IMHO: PostgreSQL should include:

PostgreSQL
Psql
All development headers
C/C++ Libs


Everything else should be on SourceForge or Gforge or whatever. The 
possible exception would be the pl stuff.

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake
