Re: Fwd: [webmaster] News on postgresql.org

I tend to be very good at being organizationally anal retentive :-) and
wonder if some of these occurrences I see on the lists saying "we really
should document who does these things" might be something I could help
with? I'd need some initial direction, and I'd certainly ask for a
while that I'd be viewed as someone here to be your individual helper vs
me trying to play control freak. Of course, I'd hope never to become
control freak :-) but I'd eventually become self sufficient enough that
a note dropped here and there would take care of it.

Thoughts??
