Tom Lane is in a better position to answer that, but I understand that things
have realigned somewhat. The package is known as 'rh-postgresql' and has
some 'enhancements' of some sort. The graphical tools are nice, and are open

Tom Lane was indeed hired by Red Hat, and he is a core developer. The tenor
of his last message would seem to imply some friction there; I hope I'm just
misunderstanding.
