It's tricky, because usually the org that wants the thing to work
supplies the thing, and I personally think that provides a meaningful
"demand" signal too. For example, we have external Solaris
representation, but no users of AIX represented at this point, and I
consider that to be quite interesting information. Plenty of people
want PG to work well on their OS or architecture.
But, supposing Azure credits were suddenly available (just between
you, me and the mailing list, I heard that this should be imminent as
some kind of grant to PG US, as a result of the Cirrus thing), do we
have a Windows-savvy volunteer to feed and water an animal? I feel
like this case is inevitable anyway because people in our own
community are probably going to be using Windows ARM laptops sooner or
later...
