How do you know? Seriously... this comes up at least twice a year :).
There is probably a basis for it.

As I was saying on #postgresql, the current system works well for a
small group of developers. I don't think there is any arguing that.

However, there is a larger group out there, that would likely be willing
to contribute but we are a bit of a black box, or perhaps we are too
transparent?? I am not sure which.

Frankly, I don't care if we ever get a bug tracker or use trac. However
a more formalized communication process is sorely needed IMHO.

I am actually hoping that jabber.postgresql.org would help that in the
long run.

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake
