To be specific it is a customer service issue.
So why is this page:
https://www.postgresql.org/support/professional_support/
"Commercial support is available from many different companies providing
professional services to the PostgreSQL community."
not a solution done by the community?
I am not sure why you are not understanding. To get Postgres to
interoperate with company product X, you need communication between the
Postgres community and the company producing product X. The community
rarely interacts directly with companies, though it does interact with
employees of Postgres-focused companies. The smaller the company and
the less the company relies on Postgres, the less likely the company
will interact with the community on the community's terms.
I do understand it comes down to two possibilities:
1) Community is what you download here:
https://www.postgresql.org/ftp/source/
and anything above that is third party involvement and nothing to do
with the community.
Or
2) As the postgresql.org mentions in many places that I have previously
cited community includes layers above the source, extending to
commercial support.
If 1) is correct then yes there is a community communication issue.
If 2) is correct there is not, as you can go here:
https://www.postgresql.org/support/professional_support/
and find support.
