Re: pg_reorg in core?

If the present project is having a tough time doing enhancements, I should
think it mighty questionable to try to draw it into core, that presses it
towards a group of already very busy developers.

On the other hand, if the present development efforts can be made more
public, by having them take place in a more public repository, that at
least has potential to let others in the community see and participate.
There are no guarantees, but privacy is liable to hurt.

I wouldn't expect any sudden huge influx of developers, but a steady
visible stream of development effort would be mighty useful to a "merge
into core" argument.

A *lot* of projects are a lot like this.  On the Slony project, we have
tried hard to maintain this sort of visibility.  Steve Singer, Jan Wieck
and I do our individual efforts on git repos visible at GitHub to ensure
ongoing efforts aren't invisible inside a corporate repo.  It hasn't led to
any massive of extra developers, but I am always grateful to see Peter
Eisentraut's bug reports.
