I think there is some confusion here. When I click the link above it
takes me to the "teaser" of the article. The teaser then points directly
to the source article.
I don't see this as any different than what search engines do. In fact
what it appears they are is a super aggregator. They are trolling the
web looking for feeds tagged PostgreSQL and bringing them into a central
portal.
Look here:
http://swik.net/PostgreSQL
As far as their license:

The text from the feeds isn't original text.
Unless someone can point out something specific that I don't see, I
think we should thank these fine people for providing yet another way to
find information about PostgreSQL.
Sincerely,
