| 474 | + |
| 475 | +<P>PostgreSQL has had a first-class infrastructure since we |
| 476 | + started five years ago. This is all thanks to Marc Fournier, who has |
| 477 | + created and managed this infrastructure over the years. |
| 478 | + |
| 479 | +<P>Quality infrastructure is very important to an open-source project. It |
| 480 | + prevents disruptions that can greatly delay forward movement of the |
| 481 | + project. |
| 482 | + |
| 483 | +<P>Of course, this infrastructure is not cheap. There are a variety of |
| 484 | + monthly and one-time expenses that are required to keep it going. If |
| 485 | + you or your company has money it can donate to help fund this effort, |
| 486 | + please go to the following URL and make a donation: |

| 490 | +<P>Although the web page mentions PostgreSQL, Inc, the "contributions" item |
| 491 | + is soley to support the PostgreSQL project and does not fund any |
| 492 | + specific company. If you prefer, you can also send a check to the |
| 493 | + contact address. |
