    What exactly does pgmemcache do?
    
    I am guessing it has to do with PostgreSQL, Memory, and Caching, but the
    readme listed below only talks about how to install it -- not what it
    does.
    
    When I tried to fetch this document, I get "Document not found":

    Howdy.  As many may have noticed, I've been working on getting 
    pgmemcache in shape for the 8.0 release.  Well, I'm nearly done, but 
    thought I'd give the folks here on hackers@ a chance to thump on things 
    and start using it or testing with it.  There's now a real installation 
    process and documentation (API, requirements, setup, install, examples, 
    etc.).
    
    Tarball:
    	http://people.FreeBSD.org/~seanc/pgmemcache/
    
    Docs (included in tarball):
    	http://people.FreeBSD.org/~seanc/pgmemcache/README.pgmemcache
    
    Please use it, thump, test, etc.  This should work in a pre-8.0 
    environment too, fwiw.  I don't have any 7.X boxen around though, 
    they're all on 8.X now.  :)  I'm very interested in feedback.  Anyway, 
    please let me know if anyone has any questions or problems.  I'm 
    holding off on posting to announce@ for another week or so, maybe after 
    the 8.0 release.  -sc

    It's the PostgreSQL interface to memcached(8).  See 
    http://www.danga.com/memcached/ for more details.

    :)  Sorry, pgmemcache is probably only of use to those who know what 
    memcached(8) does.  That said, I invite you to read the below 
    presentation or look into memcached(8).  I'll get to writing what 
    pgmemcache can do sometime this weekend.

    Fixed.  Thanks for pointing that out.
