I have an open source admin client for PostgreSQL, pgXplorer, here: github.com/davyjones/pgXplorer. I believe it is a tad better than the default admin tool bundled with Postgres. Is there any way I can build a business out of it? I am not asking out of greed. I am so enamoured with this that I find myself constantly working on this. I would like to do it full-time. Now, only if I can make it make money...

Test it! Make a landing page which identifies the key improvements. Make a demo instance people can try out. Make it easy to install. Offer licenses for business use, free for personal use. Build a community. See what happens from there. :D You'll either become too overwhelmed without cash to support it and you'll scale back your efforts. Or it'll start generating some real income. (You don't have to use my suggested business model, but it's worked for many open source projects.)
