I don't think the developers have to be full-time, like me and Tom.  Any
company that consistently contributes developer time for items other
than "we need a feature" should be listed, I think.  Peter, for example,
isn't full-time PostgreSQL, but is contributing greatly, and Command
Prompt has offered to contribute a developer toward Win32 --- I am
seeing more and more of these folks coming around, and it is beefing up
our development team.  We can help these companies also by providing
speaking and trade show opportunities.
