I already post the PostgreSQL Weekly News to www.postgresql.org as I'm
publishing it. I'd be delighted to have it get a more prominent place
than 3 clicks down. Right now, you can see it by the blindingly

marked PostgreSQL Weekly News in the text, and then choosing the top
link.

True. We could have certain "categories" get on the page, and others
not. For example, I have a category called PWN. I'm not sure how
portable that is, though.
