Just to speak up (as an avid lurker), I agree with Jeroen that this distinction is quite subtle and may cause confusion. Some may even expect the two to resolve to the same site, as a lot of popular sites own .com/.net/.org, all resolving to the same site.

Speaking of .com vs .net vs .org, anyone remember the mysql.com vs mysql.org fiasco?


Anyway, if I can vote, I'll vote for postgresql.net (for the lack of better choices). I agree with Tom that "pgfoundry" is kind of random. It's not apparent at all that it's a PostgreSQL entity. Besides, Tom & Marc is already listed as the registrant of several domains including postgresql.com. Why not use them?

Also, we're targetting the developers right? Please do not consider ourselves as being too stupid to differentiate between postgresql.org and postgresql.net... If people don't like to type long names, we can always do automatic redirection between <projname>.postgresql.net, postgresql.org/projects/<projname>, <projname>.projects.postgresql.org, etc. Or even perhaps use tinyurl :-)
