Infrastructure

  • Enhance Buildfarm to test external packages, patches, or performance: The PostgreSQL project maintains a public buildfarm that continuously communicates with several machines that checkout and build the PostgreSQL source on a regular basis. The idea behind this project is to extend the current buildfarm code to allow it download external modules and report back on their build status, to download unapplied patches and test them, or to run performance tests.
  • +
  • Translation manager for www.postgresql.org create tools to manage translations of the core project web site.

  • Procedural Language Improvements: PostgreSQL provides support for more than a dozen different procedural languages, however the level of support varies depending on the language implementation. Enhancing support of these procedural languages might include fixing build issues, adding SPI support, adding trigger support, adding support for IN/OUT parameters and more.
  • Replication: PostgreSQL provides a wide range of replication solutions for varying types of replication needs. Many of these projects need assistance with building against different versions of PostgreSQL, installation and setup, administrative tools, and general bugfixing.
  • Teaching & Learning Tools: External tools to help in teaching the internals of PostgreSQL such as enhanced visual EXPLAIN, graphical models of the query engine, educational guides to the code, and interactive tools to demonstrate various query types. +
  • PostGIS & GEOS add performance and feature enhancements to PostgreSQL's geographic data support.
  • +
  • pgMemcached port pgMemcached to the new libmemcached, and update it for PostgreSQL 8.3, and/or add features.
  • Additional projects may be found by browsing the PostgreSQL Development Projects website.
