Not only is it a mongodb interface on postgresql, it's built by Microsoft, and has joined the Linux foundation? Color me surprised. Did they build this for fun or what?

How does this related to other mongo on postgres projects? It looks like ferretdb was changed to build on documentdb and then abandoned?
