Thanks for the links. Your book, of course, is probably the first thing
that new users should be reading; I added a link in the document.

One area that you could help is the Who's Using PostgreSQL section.
If this features document has a datasheet/sales tool feeling, I think it
should provide some information about the scalability and real-world use
of PG.

I posted a draft start of the time to pgsql-docs.


Thanks!
