I increasingly find myself travelling between our offices or in the data center and away from my email/feed reader.

Forgive me if this isn't the way to announce this, or if I'm stepping on someone's toes. I checked Twitter and didn't see anything existing for this, so I decided to scratch my own itch. :) If anyone with PGSQL wants it shut down or wants to take it and make it official, just ping me.
