It's a pity that you guys currently don't have plans to attack -hackers with new proposal. As I've said, a lot of users cannot compare le C extensions, they need packaging (and ideally, postgres-contribs, not a separate package).

We don't have enough resources to convince hackers right now. Also, we are waiting for the two new big features - better custom WAL format and supports of arrays, hopefully in a couple of weeks. Notice, today we released supports of many built-in data types. After that we'll need somebody's help to write docs and only then we could start discussion in -hackers.

Hello,
RUM is in development state now. I don't believe that it could be included in the PostgreSQL core in the near future.
RUM was started as a patch for GIN several years ago actually. But PostgreSQL's hackers didn't reach agreement about architecture of new changes. And so RUM is an extension now.
