G'day all ...

   When we setup GBorg, one of the additions that we added to it was to
have the ability to link to a Project Web Page ... if I recall correctly,
it was DaveP that prompted it for the ODBC driver ...

   What I'd like to do is extend that one step further and provide a space
where projects can put their project pages ... basically, a ftp address
that they can login to and upload a "site" for <project>.postgresql.net
...

   Two reasons for postgresql.net ... a) its not being used right now and
b) it keeps it out of the postgresql.org name space which has alot in it
right now with all of the mirror stuff ...

   Gborg itself is "dry" ... no individualism to it, and limited in the
amount of information that can be provided, as well as how it can be
provided ... this would leave the development stuff (CVS, bug trackign,
mailing lists, etc) on gborg, while providing an area under which more
individualistic project pages could be developed, similar to how
sourceforge has things setup:

    http://gaim.sourceforge.net/

    vs

    http://sourceforge.net/projects/gaim/

   So we'd have a:

    http://jdbc.postgresql.net

    vs

    http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/pgjdbc/projdisplay.php

   Thoughts?  Useless idea?  Bad idea?  Waste of time and energy?
