Dear Thomas,

Is there anyone more specifically that you know,
certainly on pgsql-hackers(at)lists(dot)postgresql(dot)org,
that you might recommd me to?

Z.M.

Hi A Z,

Not me, sorry. If it's a commercial proposition, you could perhaps
try talking to one of the PostgreSQL consultancies? Or hire a student
:-)

I'm personally quite interested in getting DEFLOAT added to Postgres,
but that's a fixed size, floating point, base 10 data type, and it's
needed for standard conformance. That's probably why I read your
emails to see if there was some overlap.
