I think we're all in pseudo-agreement here ... we need clearer lines drawn
... IMHO, the *main* thing that is on www.postgresql.org is the docs ...
all the docs, not just idocs ... IMHO, techdocs is the tutorials and
guides that are developed/provided independantly of the core documentation
...

www.postgresql.org, once its ready, is going to point to the new portal,
after which what is now www.postgresql.org is going to need to tighten
itself up to reduce redundancy ... I'd personally like to see the iDocs
stuff somehow used more heavily then I think it is now ... one of the neat
things about it is the ability, like with the PHP site, to add
comments/examples.

I think the only limitation that I've heard of anyone talking about as
concerns idocs is the search facility is a bit weak, which is actually one
of the reasons that I don't use it as often as I could ...

would it be possible to replace the .html file with the page Title? That
way, for instance, I can choose to go to 'Date/Time Types' instead of
going datatype-datetimes.html?
