Bruce I am not sure why this all came up to be honest and I think the
whole thread needs to jump ship. A blog is whatever you make it.
Sometimes it contains highly technical information, sometimes it is
just general drivel...

My take is very simple and I believe Devrim's is too. Use the blog.
Enjoy your blog. Ignore everyone else because their critiques are
irrelevant. As long as Devrim (as it is his project) is happy with you
there, no one has a right to do anything but be quiet.

As far as the www.postgresql.org listing is concerned I have yet to see
anything you have done or anyone else for that matter (with the except
of Hubert which was resolved very quickly and politely) be
inappropriate for the page.

In short, please enjoy your blog. Everyone else, let's wait until there
is actually a problem.

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake
