That would make sense IMHO. I'm not interested enough in some
extensions to maintain them on my own, but I'm not opposed to do a
quick bug fix now and then.

However, the pkg-postgresql alioth project is not really functional
for the main postgresql packages, since they are in bzr.

So depending on whether you other guys prefer bzr or svn, we need to
re-register the project properly. (I don't like svn because it does
not support branches, but with bzr-svn I could hack around it).
