Thanks Heikki for updating. Sorry for slacking on this item.

Regarding hte Erlang driver, http://glozer.net/src/epgsql/ and
http://tilleuropa.se/pgsql are dead links, and I have found one erland
driver on github which is rather active:
https://github.com/epgsql/epgsql
This does not use libpq, and it does not support the sasl protocol.

The third driver
(https://code.google.com/archive/p/erlang-psql-driver/) exists but it
is claimed as unmaintained. Wouldn't it be better to just remove all
three from the list and replace them by the github one?

For node-postgres, I would recommend updating the third column to tell
"yes" if libpq is used, and "no" otherwise.
