It certainly doesn't have to be a link.  I just thought it would be
helpful for new users to see all the activity on one screen.  But, of
course, pglife is only a few months old, so I can wait for its userbase
to mature.

Sorry, I don't understand "all things about the community run on
postgresql.org".  You are right that almost all the information in
pglife is somewhere on the postgresql.org website, or linked to it; 
perhaps that what you meant.
