  1. Bibliography section, some references cannot be found

    hi.

while reading this[1],
<< More information about partial indexes can be found in [ston89b],
[olson93], and [seshadri95].
I googled around, still cannot find [olson93] related pdf or html link.


in [2],
I found out
[ong90] “A Unified Framework for Version Modeling Using Production
Rules in a Database System”. L. Ong and J. Goh. ERL Technical
Memorandum M90/33. University of California. Berkeley, California.
April, 1990.
related link is
https://www2.eecs.berkeley.edu/Pubs/TechRpts/1990/1466.html


an idea:
In case these external links in
(https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/biblio.html) become dead
links,
we can send these external pdf or html files in the mailing list for
archive purposes.

Judging by the bibliography reference it's a technical report from UCB, and
searching for the T7 identifier in the UCB library reveals that it's a M.Sc
thesis only available in physical form:

https://search.library.berkeley.edu/permalink/01UCS_BER/iqob43/alma991082339239706532

The link might not be useful to many, but it may save a few minutes of googling
from other readers.

Linking to that seems like a good idea.

If a link stops working, and no replacement is available, it's probably better
to link to the archive.org entry instead.

While doing inbox cleaning I found that this hadn't been applied, so went ahead
and did that. Thanks!
