No, I'm saying that even though SPI is in theory holding resources on
behalf of and controlled by PostgreSQL.org, it also needs to abide by
its corporate charter to engage in "Software in the Public Interest".
If any of SPI's projects should start doing things which are not in
the public interest, (again, this is all just theory) SPI should
refuse to allow the project to use those resources.
So you are saying that if we take 5k in donations for postgresql and
then postgresql doesn't something that SPI doesn't like, SPI could
freeze that 5k? In theory?
But to answer your question, SPI is not the owner of PostgreSQL.Org,
so no.
O.k. good :).
