Yes, that same problem has certainly seemed to hamper the implementation
of the apache web server. I mean, no one uses that thing... without a
single strong company behind it, apache has just floundered the last few
years.
Guess what? Both Postgresql and apache have strong commercial support.
It just isn't provided by one company who holds all the strings.
That's a good thing, by the way.
