pgloader's Oracle connector carries a decade of technical debt and a JDBC dependency nobody wants. Below the €30,000 threshold, nothing is charged and development doesn't start. Above it, work begins and ships under the same open source license as the rest of pgloader — for everyone, not only the companies who funded it.

Pledge what makes sense for you. A symbolic amount if you’re simply rooting for this; more if a properly rewritten Oracle connector — using JDBC, correct NUMBER and CLOB handling, partitioned tables — is worth real budget to your team. Every pledge counts the same way toward the threshold, whatever the amount.
