What open source development process is used by the PostgreSQL team?
What open source development process is used by the PostgreSQL team?
Read HACKERS for six months (or a full release cycle, whichever is

What development environment (OS, system, compilers, etc) is required
to develop code?
What development environment (OS, system, compilers, etc) is required to
develop code?
