Glad to hear this.

One question: is there any particular reason the www list is closed? Just
curious -- reading archives of this list, or getting a digest or this list,
even in a read-only manner, might alleviate some misconceptions. Those who
care can at least read what's planned for the web site.

As far as advocacy is concerned, I made a conscious decision to not read that
list -- I don't need to be convinced to use PostgreSQL. :-). Nor am I
necessarily a good 'advocacy' person......my 'convincing' many times comes
across much different from what I meant. So I don't read that list.

Can you (or Vince) distill a roadmap for the website and post here, on
hackers?
