But why duplicate the "download PostgreSQL" page on advocacy? ISTM a
link to the appropriate page on the main website would be fine -- and if
the "download PostgreSQL" stuff on the main website isn't perfect, then
we should improve it (and fix the underlying problem), rather than
duplicating content on advocacy.postgresql.org

He probably means that on http://advocacy.postgresql.org/download/, you
only have direct links to [www|ftp].postgresql.org, not any of the
mirror sites.
