One small change I'd suggest on the main site: http://www.postgresql.org/developer/coding links to http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Developer_and_Contributor_Resources which is now a redirect to the above page.

This request should be on -www and as a note I don't know that I like the idea.

There were two suggestions there, and technically one of them goes to -docs instead if we're gonna get picky.

1) Switch the URL that's already on the coding page to more directly point to a URL that actually exists, rather than a redirect. That seems undebatable.

2) Put a link to an area that contains information like current CommitFest progress in the development section of the manual.

(2) was already suggested here recently; I said I didn't think that was a good idea until the content there stabilized because I planned a reorganization. I was just announcing that I believe that to be stable now, and I nominate the revised "Developer information" page as the one to link to.

If you don't like the idea of embedding a few choice URLs from the wiki into the main documentation in general, I don't know why. The manual is great for some things, the wiki is great for others, and the best way to use both for what they're good at is to start coupling them together at appropriate points.
