The problem is organization.  Who decides who gets what money?  What about 
features that are paid for and worked on and not accepted into the 
community codebase?  This was something I hoped the PostgreSQL Foundation 
http://thepostgresqlfoundation.org/ would step in and do, but we seem much 
more focused on advocacy efforts rather than developemnt ones.
