During the last german PostgreSQL conference, I was asked if I could do
something to ensure PL/Lua is always in a good shape and tested/adapted
to the latest PostgreSQL versions.

Since I use both PostgreSQL and Lua heavily (and I wrote the
Lua/PostgreSQL interface at github.com/mbalmer/), I would of course take
this challenge.  But since you are the maintainer I see a conflict here ;)

What is the best way to deak with?  Should I crete a "clone" and call it
e.g. PL/PgLua?
