What was removed then was the *man page* of pgadmin.
Earlier in that thread, someone said:
"It's certainly nice to mention related products, but maybe a reference
page is not the most appropriate form"
which someone later interpreted as an incentive to a purge. :-/
I think these principles still apply today, and most in this thread
appear to agree: Mention tools in the right context.
