Thread: EnterpriseDB on sponsors page
Folks, EnterpriseDB would like to be listed on the "postgresql sponsors" page. Their credentials are: -- Employed Alvaro for 3 months exclusively to complete shared locks for 8.1. -- Paid for, and devoted staff time to, Coverity testing of PostgreSQL 8.0 and the subsequent bug fixes. -- Ported the JasperSoft dashboard to PostgreSQL ( http://www.oetrends.com/news.php?action=view_record&idnum=498 ) and are porting SugarCRM (release early 2006). -- Provided booth space and swag at Linux World Expo 2005 -- are helping with legal fees for our trademark issues. -- plan to make ongoing code contributions based on their work on eDB. This is the first time, I think, we've talked about someone who's not employing a full-time developer or giving us web servers right now. However, they have contributed a bunch of other "stuff" and plan to keep on doing so. Discussion? --Josh Berkus

Worst case is they stop making contributions and we take them off the list again. No objection here. BTW, has anybody looked over the list lately to see if any entries are old? Maybe we need a "contributors emeritus" page ... regards, tom lane
People, >>"Employed Alvaro for 3 months" would classify in here, I'd think ... and >>the code contributions indirectly feeds into that ... no arguments from >>here ... Related, Andy has just told me that they've hired Korry Douglas half-time. Not sure what he's working on, though. --Josh

The have also given pgAdmin more sponsorship than anyone else ever has. I certainly think they should be included as they are clearly supporting PostgreSQL and related projects in many non-trivial ways. Just because it is not a single big item like a server or FT developer we should should not exclude them Regards, Dave.
