I don't think we should include 13-18 here since it'll get stale over time and we will forget to update it

Let's not add this one here... I'd rather we highly Neon for example

| pgrx was created by [Eric Ridge](https://github.com/eeeebbbbrrrr), who had been building PostgreSQL extensions in C since version 8.0. The framework grew out of his work on [ZomboDB](https://github.com/zombodb/zombodb), an Elasticsearch-backed indexing extension (now deprecated) — after years of writing C extensions, he built pgrx to present PostgreSQL's internals through Rust's idioms instead. The project was originally named "pgx" and [renamed to pgrx](https://github.com/pgcentralfoundation/pgrx/issues/1106) in April 2023. | ||

| pgrx is now maintained by the [PgCentral Foundation](https://pgcentral.org/), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that provides the project with a community-governed home independent of any single company. |

It's still maintained by Eric/Jubilee, though, even though it's donated to PgCentral Foundation. I think this could be a bit more explicit here. Don't think the PgCentral foundation does anything to it

Do we want to add a bit of context for why we chose to use pgrx? looks awesome!
