Yeah, I just read the thread.  I guess with the low volume makes sense
to use "general", but I figured if someone went to the work of
developing a website for BDR, they would just as soon create a mailing
list hosted there, but I guess not.

It clearly is being developed by 2nd Quadrant:

    http://bdr-project.org/docs/next/index.html

    BDR is developed by the BDR team at 2ndQuadrant. Multiple customers
    contribute funding and other resources to make BDR development possible.
    2ndQuadrant continues to fund the ongoing development of BDR to meet
    internal needs and those of customers.

It doesn't look like a community project to me --- it looks like an open
source project funded by 2nd Quadrant and its customers, which is fine,
but I don't know why the community is fielding questions about it on its
mailing list.
