There are some very minor formatting glitches left, but the good thing
about this being on the wiki is that anybody can go and fix them.

The bad thing is that translations have to be maintained by hand (as
they always have). The spanish one is already in place:
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Preguntas_Frecuentes

Stefan tells me that Mediawiki has plugins to help with the translation,
but for now they continue to require hand inspection. We'll welcome
more information on this regard.
