Hi,

Is it possible to obtain money for a contribution I give hear. Or is everything expected to be free?

Regards

As there is no sole or primary PostgreSQL company, there is no purse
from which to disburse such payments.

If you're qualified, i.e. if you show the right level of engineering
chops, you can make it (part of) your employment to work on
PostgreSQL.  You can do this at one of the many companies which see it
as being in their interest to hire people for that.

These include, but are not limited to:

- PostgreSQL consultancies
- Cloud providers
- Vendors of proprietary software based on or including PostgreSQL

Best,
David.
