Well, "growing" could cover a multitude of possibilities. It could mean
there was one and now there are two. Maybe there are lots out there and
I at least just haven't heard of it. But if you want to say that there
is a significant number of people actually contributing here who use it
that would be all the better for some evidence.

Historically we've been fairly resistant to carrying things related to
how people build or develop postgres.
