Quick start guide claims postgres is supported ( http://www.openx.org/docs/2.4/qsg-install ) so
I downloaded and tried to install openx. Sadly, the database settings page only shows "MYSQL" in the
"Database type" dropdown list, and the release notes document states:

4. Does OpenX 2.4.4 support PostgreSQL?
No, there is currently no support for PostgreSQL in OpenX 2.4.4.
Installing and upgrading from Openads 2.0 for PostgreSQL will be supported
in a future release of OpenX.

So the question is: is postgres suported?

Oh, very sorry for that slip in the documentation.

Support for additional databases *is* being worked on, however it is not in 2.4.

If you are interested in testing Postgres support, I would suggest coming (in an IRC client) to #openx on irc.freenode.net to learn about setting up in SVN

Years ago i contributed as a developer to phpPgAds project. What's the way for contributing now? I mean, where is the source repository? sourcefogue project seems outdated.

Hi,

Well phpPgAds is located here:
https://svn.openx.org/openx/branches/2.0/ppa/trunk/

The main development branch of OpenX (for current work) is here:
https://svn.openx.org/openx/trunk/

There will be just 1 version of OpenX which will be able to support MySQL and PostgreSQL - however I can't really say what the release plan would be for postgres support
