I totally agree with that.

And the simplest we could do while being technically correct for
PostgreSQL major versionning support, extensions building, debian
integration, upgrade paths, automated package building, QA and automated
testing is what you know as apt.postgresql.org.

When you compare what we have now there to any other offering, please
remember to include an upgrade paths discussion.

It took years to build and we're far from done still. As Stefan best
said it in this thread, one step at a time.
