This article is important for a few reasons. First, it highlights our upcoming 7.5 release and generates interest in the significant number of features coming in this release. Second, it highlights the companies contributing to PostgreSQL. This shares public relations
exposure with these companies, and it also shows other companies they too can get involved in funding PostgreSQL and its developers.
