Re: SQL5 budget

I think you're barking up the wrong tree here; the community can't
really do hacking for hire. If you want to pay for something to be
implemented (which is great!), you'll need to talk to companies that
do Postgres consulting. You can find examples on the website and
through google. You could also try posting to pgsql-jobs.
