For my part, I am not sure the names in the release notes are actually all that helpful.
It has one important effect of current interest: establishing the truth that multiple people and multiple companies are involved in producing and maintaining PostgreSQL. Whether the names are properly attributed will always be a time-consuming task, but I will oppose any attempt to remove or obscure evidence of who develops PostgreSQL, wherever that occurs.
