The current list is at

http://www.postgresql.org/devel-corner/docs/admin/supported-platforms.html

OK, if we entered in the current list of supported platforms, or even if
not, that could form the basis for the "solicitation email" to get the
rest of the platforms tested. Look at what I collate in the docs, but if
you give me more that won't be a problem.

btw, for docs I'm not sure how to include much more information, since
it has to fit on a page (in tabular form, presumably). Suggestions?

Ok, the URL would be the same as above, for *development*. Not sure how
we will do the same info on the "released side" of the web site?

Yup, you are right. Thanks.

Hmm, would generating an email to the -hackers list when something gets
updated be useful? istm it would not end up being spam, but what do
y'all think?
