Yes, I want to take that attitude and encourage software vendors and OSS projects to support PostgreSQL. But in
reality,the questions I hear are "Does PG work with X?" Any ideas to convince software vendors to support PostgreSQL?

Could you share your image by taking a good example page of some successful commercial or open source products? I'd
liketo understand the ideal level of information on the ecosystem page.
Anyway, I think some form of web pages are necessary where people who are considering to migrate from other databases
canjudge whether they can use their existing software assets, and new database users can choose PostgreSQL with relief.
For example, relatively new and successful companies like MongoDB and Cloudera have the pages for ecosystem.
Cloudera'swebsite is nice because it has the "Partners" link on the home page.
MongoDB Enterprise Certification Program
https://www.mongodb.com/partners/partner-program/technology/certification
Cloudera: Partners
http://www.cloudera.com/partners.html
It needs discussion whether the items on the page should be individual products or just companies/OSS-organizations.
