While I have occasionally spoken up about this, I'm not sure how to formulate
a fair set of rules that can apply to everyone.

The page in question is this: <http://www.postgresql.org/download/linux>. We
do promote an Ubuntu package there, for example. And even though Ubuntu
installers are not typically graphical, I don't think anyone would really
notice or complain if these packages printed out a notice, "Ubuntu packages
made by Canonical".

And then how is this different from "One-Click Installer made by
EnterpriseDB"?
