For a while now, Hive has used Postgres DB for Hivemind and HAF. These are two core systems in a Hive node. Postgres is an open source project funded by community donations and sponsorships.

Our dependency on Postgres grows every day as we use it. I propose we become a Postgres supporter, for as little as $2,500 we can sponsor postgres at the friend level and be listed on their website. For $30,000 you can become benefactor level sponsor which as far as I can see there are only two, Amazon & EDB.

This is very low hanging fruit for some minor exposure and to support a good project that is critical to our survival. It's no rally car, but it may take us places to target sponsorships like this that can actually make a difference.

I am sure there are many other opportunities of more strategic and beneficial uses of the DHF that help Hive. This one is real easy and just makes a lot of sense.
