The organization of the PostgreSQL Global Development Group is not like the organization of a commercial software
organization. It is up to the general developer community to propose, advocate, and see through any changes (including
ports). The "leadership" reviews and approves contributions to the primary core PostgreSQL code, but it is up to the
personor organization that wants a feature to do the work to make it actually happen.
So, basically, if you want a maintained VMS port, you need to either drive the project yourself, or find others who
will.
