Missed this thread. I wrote a post
http://pgolub.wordpress.com/2011/03/04/chm-help-for-postgresql-9-0/
with poll "Do you need CHM manual for PostgreSQL?"

The results are:

Yeah, sure! 71.88% (23 votes)
No, thanks. 15.63% (5 votes)
May be... 12.5% (4 votes)

Total Votes: 32

I suppose having CHM manual is important.
