As fas I am concerned, being a generalized programer, to program the
serverside functionality
I would need a header file that should include nearly all the server
side functionality and a lib,
presumably dynamically linkable lib file libpgserver.so. We already
have the interface library libpq.so
The server side header does not have to include everything. It only
needs to be the parts that the
user programer needs to manipulate (SPI?).
I see a great advantage to be able to plug in some information_managing
algorithms into Postgres.
