We can do that, no problem.

Fair enough. Now.... I'd like not to waste any resources before
having that "longer conversation" then, which I hope it is not that
long. We're building a user authentication system on top of
https://postgresqlco.nf that will use external id providers like Google
Account, Twitter and others. We'd like to provide postgresql.org
community account as a first-class citizen authentication mechanism,
since this is something for the PostgreSQL Community as a whole. If this
is possible, great! If not, we should know asap and stick with the other
providers only --but I hope should not be a big deal.
Thanks,
Álvaro
