Unfortunately, they aren't really talking about PG there, it would seem.
Or, if they are, they've completely misunderstood that PG is not one
company's product but rather an independent open source project which
has lots of companies contributing to it.
If they really wanted to contrast 'open source commitment' between the
various vendors, they probably should have considered including the
company that actually commits the most code to PG too, but that's
starting to show my own bias.
Thanks!
