Hi,
As a potential user of the solution, I'd very much like to have
plproxy into -core if possible and sensible. Knowing nothing about the
"sensible" part, I'd vote for inclusion.
But whether -core vote for or against inclusion, I'd appreciate to
have a module or package notion into PostgreSQL and a tool to easily
install existing extensions, which would build on PGXS extension
system to build on the fly code version compatible with current major
PG version :
pg_pkg add-mirror http://packages.postgresql.org/
pg-pkg list [remote | available]
pg_pkg add plproxy prefix citext
pg_pkg install plproxy mydatabase
pg_pkg uninstall [--force] plproxy mydatabase
..
Of course details about PostgreSQL module/package management belongs
to some other thread, I'll try to browse our archives to see where we
are on this point and to propose a summary and some ideas if
necessary. Any reader willing to share good starting points? :)
I think having something to easily manage PostgreSQL modules/packages
(including contribs ones) would change the matter here. If it was easy
to fetch a list of -core reviewed or supported extensions and to
install them on ones databases, having plproxy not included in -core
would be an *easy* decision to make.

appear before 2011... Not that its a argument for merge, but maybe
pushing it to an "all-presentable-extensions" package and having
proper
review done would be a good idea.
Now, it seems to me we already have a place where to distribute
reviewed code, maintained by non-core hackers and integrated into
distributions and documentation of PostgreSQL: contrib.
Maybe contrib (plans to get a better name ongoing? extra, extension,
anything less remote then current naming) would fit the bill here as a
good compromise?
Sorry to raise unwanted subjects, please do not feed the trolls (in
this thread at least) :)
