i concur. stick the wording about who can commit to the source tree somewhere
prominent on the web site (maybe a "who are the PostgreSQL developers?"
entry in a FAQ) and leave it out of the too-long press release.

perhaps all the good stuff that doesn't belong in the press release that
nobody wants to cut can go in a PostgreSQL 8.0 FAQ, which can be
prominently featured on the front page of the web site.
