Can we coordinate a case study of how and why PTelecom uses postgresql,
especially contrasted with it's use of oracle?

If you'd like to do some legwork, the standard things to translate
include back end files, FAQ, and advocacy website. I think those might
all be covered but if you find one that isn't or needs updating then
please jump in. After that I usually suggest helping translate pgAdmin
and phpPgAdmin, though I think they both might already have Portuguese
covered.
