RFC: PostgreSQL Add-on Network

I’ve posted a plan to implement PGAN, a CPAN for PostgreSQL extensions. I’ve tried to closely follow the CPAN philosophy to come up with a plan that requires a minimum-work implementation that builds on the existing PostgreSQL tools and the examples of the CPAN and JSAN. My hope is that it’s full of JFDI! I would be very grateful for feedback and suggestions.

Good timing, given the hub-bub about Oracle and MySQL.
