I don't think that such information, while certainly worthwhile, belongs 
into the PostgreSQL documentation, especially because it would cover 
things that are not even included in PostgreSQL, such as DBD::Pg or PHP 
or some mysterious generic "applications".  But in any case it's more 
important to actually write something than worry about where or how it 
will be published.
