I don't think the developers have to be full-time, like me and Tom. Any
company that consistently contributes developer time for items other
than "we need a feature" should be listed, I think. Peter, for example,
isn't full-time PostgreSQL, but is contributing greatly, and Command
Prompt has offered to contribute a developer toward Win32 --- I am
seeing more and more of these folks coming around, and it is beefing up
our development team. We can help these companies also by providing
speaking and trade show opportunities.
