Hackers,

I've posted a [plan] to implement PGAN][], a CPAN for PostgreSQL extensions. I've tried to closely follow the [CPAN
philosophy][]to come up with a plan that requires a minimum-work implementation that builds on the existing PostgreSQL
toolsand the examples of the [CPAN][] and [JSAN][]. My hope is that it's full of [JFDI][]! I would be very grateful for
feedbackand suggestions. 

[plan]: http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PGAN
[CPAN philosophy]: http://use.perl.org/article.pl?sid=02/11/12/1616209
[CPAN]: http://cpan.org/
[JSAN]: http://www.openjsan.org
[JFDI]: http://acronyms.thefreedictionary.com/JFDI

Best,

David
