I would suggest that you read the email again. I was writing to a
symbiotic type of relationship where the two are equal giving partners.
Not where one is more imnportant than the other.

If you have the sum of commercial interests providing for a large
portion of the code being developed into the community, it makes sense
that the community in return would acknowledge and show appreciation
for; as the PostgreSQL normally does, the existence of the commercial
support that goes into said community.

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake
