Hi,

this was raised on the Italian list [1].

If you start at http://www.postgresql.org/download/ then choose
Debian and find
http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/dists/jessie-pgdg/ nowhere you
are reminded that 9.5 is alpha.

On the other hand, if you choose RedHat, you end up at
http://yum.postgresql.org/repopackages.php where there is a prominent
red line stating "BETA TESTING ONLY, NOT FOR PRODUCTION" next to 9.5.

The question/suggestion is: would it make sense to have such a red line
also on the Debian click-path?

Bye,
Chris.
