For the record, the contrib replacement would look like proper Extension
handling in dump&restore, PGXS support for windows, and PGAN for source
level archive distribution. We'd still rely on distributions support for
binaries.
Those are the technical layers we need, then we'd have a PGAN entry for
replacing contrib, and a host of other ones. The contrib Archive Network
would contain -core reviewed (and maintained?) extensions, the other
ones are on their own. Maybe the main other one would be (could be?) a
new component of pgfoundry.
