I think we said some time ago that the messages could just go to the pgsql-www list and be handled by whoever picks them up. The list is closed after all.

One question regarding the news and events forms

Who will check the news and events and approve them?

Should I send a mail to someone?
Or is one looking into the db and set the approved flag on true?

Ewald, I'd recommend using a form embedded in the page, since a pop-up
is probably going to need javascript, and we probably have a diverse
enough group of browsers to avoid javascript if possible. 

Also, when it submits it needs to be inserted into the new database in
not approved status. It can then mail it to the list for someone to go
approve it.

ok I will take that over. 
should this be a popup or a form integrated in the page?

Great, thanks. It does look better I think - Marc?
One thing I completely forgot - at the bottom of the news and event
headlines on index.html, there are options to submit news/events. These
need a simple form, again built using php/buildstatics that allow anyone
to submit news or an event. I think it should just email it to the
lists, then whoever of us picks it up can deal with it.
Thoughts?
