Hi All, I just saw this thread. I tend to agree with the general idea of having a code of conduct. If you are on a long distance journey then it will help to have road signs every now and then. Following your nose won't hurt but doesn't necessarily help either! LOL More seriously, on the point about making Postgresql a success. I think it is already a success and can become bigger and better by having not just higher standards but also by having a business structure that allows larger number of companies making money out of it. This will draw more business towards the product. When the Sun Microsystem went bust and was taken over by Oracle. It was a clear evidence that open source doesn't work commercially not even for an innovative company like Sun. Sun's experience demonstrates that commercial success is not just about better products. The business structure, development, marketing and pricing are all very important. I am not in favour of massive price structures but that there should be $100-$200 costs for smallest version. Times several million products. This may allow postgresql to reduce its prices on its the top of the range products. Hope this helps. Well done guys you are doing a great job.
