PERSPECTIVES ON POSTGRESQL 18
Inside the Release Cycle and the Power of Community Contribution

PostgreSQL community leaders Bruce Momjian, Tom Kincaid, and Floor Drees share how the database evolves every year, from the first idea on a mailing list to the final release. They explain why contributing code matters, how features advance without a traditional roadmap, and how ecosystem projects like pgAdmin and Barman stay in lockstep with core development. The discussion also covers PG18 by the numbers, the CommitFest process, and the annual cadence that keeps Postgres at the forefront of open-source database innovation.
