I don't know much but to me it seems PostgreSQL is probably one of the most open and supporting communities maybe this is reason alot of new faces are looking at it including me.

It's also a great example of a technology which is mature and well-tested yet actively growing and improving. Most open source projects have a lot to learn from Postgres.

  What would you say those learning points are? What key factors would you introduce into another OSS project that PostgreSQL currently employs?

    One of the weirdest is that there is no bug tracker. When things are found to be broken, they tend to get fixed immediately and there is nothing to track. Feature and incremental improvement work seems an arduous process, where you need to own your work and deal with extensive reviewing (no tossing it over the wall for others to maintain).

They were my introduction to open source -- and, well, let's just say I wish every project were so well-run. One of the best for sure.
