I spent a while looking in the list archives, but the list archives have
been misbehaving lately (you click on a search result and the message
that appears doesn't have the same subject as the one you clicked on).
They may have fixed that (they are aware of the problem, according to
pgsql-www). Also, the messages I was able to find were mostly from a
long time ago.

If you have a pointer to a particularly useful thread please let me
know.
