+The [Tembo Blog] published [a post] by yours truly last week about when to
+preload shared libraries and when not to:
+
+> Recently I've been trying to figure out when a Postgres extension shared
+> libraries should be preloaded. By "shared libraries" I mean libraries
+> provided or used by Postgres extensions, whether [`LOAD`]able libraries or
+> `CREATE EXTENSION` libraries written in C or [pgrx]. By "preloaded" I mean
+> under what conditions should they be added to one of the [Shared Library
+> Preloading] variables, especially `shared_preload_libraries`.
+> 
+> The answer, it turns out, comes very much down to the extension type.
+
+I view this post as a kind of proto-chapter for an imagined book about
+developing extensions that I'd like to work on someday. I learned quite a lot
+researching it and responding to [extensive feedback] from more knowledgeable
+community members. It resulted in updates to the PGXN Meta [preload property]
+that I hope will inform binary distribution in the future. More on that soon.
