Okay, then how about postgres-extra.net, or forpostgres.net?

Saying Postgres instead of PostgreSQL takes out a bit of that extra length
and it's lots easier to pronounce. We've been through this whole what-
shall-we-call-it thing months ago and IIRC the upshot was that the short
version of the name is perfectly acceptable and much catchier. Here's a
chance to use it!

Even shorter and catchier would be "pgprojects.net" IMHO, but that again
stretches the connection with PostgreSQL.
