An alias (or nickname) doesn't get used for the title of pages on 
www.postgresql.org, or in the docs.  That's really the difference 
between an alias and an official name.

Of course, this may not be that consequetial since everyone seems to 
refer to Postgre(SQL) Weekly News as "PWN".  I know that, despite 
reading it most weeks for the last 6 months, this is the first time I 
noticed.

So, thinking about this further, I think this should be up to the web 
team on the amount of naming consistency they want to enforce -- WWW 
committers can always change the page title after David posts it..  I 
don't really think it's a core decision, and how's core going to give 
David "orders" anyway?  What do we do if he doesn't follow them?  Put 
him on KP detail?
