I'm beginning to wonder whether it would be better from a PR perspective to
rename pgfoundry to something like modules.postgresql.org. While "modules"
isn't necessarily technically right in postgresql vocabulary it's right in the
more general sense
And it doesn't imply the pieces of code are still in progress like
"projects.postgresql.org" might and doesn't give the impression that they're
living on their own without support from other postgres people like having a
separate domain does.
