Hi Robert, I loved this initiative. Please allow me to introduce myself: I have been using Postgres for 10 years both as a backend developer connecting to a Postgres cluster, a DBA, and also I studied thoroughly the code of Postgres and some plugins. I'm currently working on an ambitious plan to have lock-free full vacuum and continuous ordering of a clustered index. My first step in this effort is creating a DataGrip plugin that shows various related stats and most importantly a visual view of the data pages where we can see the ordering and fragmentation of the pages. I do have the complete plan in my head and the DataGrip plugin itself is 50% done. However, having a mentor/partner would help a lot if that is a possibility.
