- -1. Our software catalog is nowhere near as visible as our wiki.

Not sure why the wiki can't have it as well. It's not like there is a 
limit on the number of pages. Also, would this apply only to 
*commercial* third-party software? Because we have things like this:

http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Londiste

http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PGXN

http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/TurnKey_PostgreSQL

Not to mention things like this:

http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Tungsten

In short, I'd like to see more on the wiki, commerical or no, I think we're 
a mature enough community to be able to self-police any blatant commercial 
abuse of the wiki.
