Is this repository still maintained? #69

Hey @dmoore1989 @zcmarine @cpdean -- Sorry if you folks are the wrong ones to ping, but ya'll are some of the most recent, prolific contributors to this project. Is it still being used / maintained by Squarespace? Is there any chance support will pick up? Particularly supporting PG 11+ looks like an important piece and there is an open PR here for that: #67

Appreciate any response / help in this regard! A company I contract with is potentially using this tool, so I'd like to know if that is a bad choice or not.

hey @Gowiem,

I have not been at Squarespace for a couple of years now, so I cannot speak for it or their goals for this project in any way, but I would advise a that a community-maintained fork is probably the most direct way to accomplish your goals of having a system that reliably maps a high-level declarative config onto Postgres user roles and permissions.

circa 2019 this project was only used by a handful of teams, and unless someone in an official capacity can say otherwise, it's effectively vaporware despite being used internally regularly. I doubt we will see updates to pgbedrock from the team that owns it internally unless to fix a specific problem that they have.
