PgFoundry is coming along in its own right. I see three main problems 
with it at current:

1. It looks like a separate project from PostgreSQL (website, name, etc...)

2. Stability and speed (which is currently being resolved)

3. Gborg still exists (which is going away once number 2 is resolved).

The traffic on pgFoundry is increasing as are the projects being 
submitted. I don't think there is an issue of pgFoundry being a success 
as much as an issue of it being a success as part of the PostgreSQL 
project itself.

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake
