I believe you're referring to: https://github.com/ashtum/psql
The goal was to create a small and easy-to-maintain wrapper around
libpq to integrate smoothly with the C++ and Asio ecosystem. While it
is mostly complete in terms of communication and asynchronous
operations, it lacks the necessary infrastructure for mapping between
database and standard/user-defined types.

A Boost PostgreSQL library that implements the PostgreSQL protocol,
similar to what you've done with Boost.MySQL, would be an excellent
addition to Boost. I believe it would attract many users.

Thanks,
Mohammad.
