I have been lurking on the list with the intent of finding a project
to undertake while I finish up my BS in CompSci. I will be bored out
of my mind with classes and would benefit greatly from working inside
pgsql. I'd be very interested in any sort of pgsql project where I
could be of help. I have quite a few sites/applications that would
benefit from enhancements to pgsql (2PC+replication, clustering,
master-master) so there is also that motive.
my 2c,
