9.1 is really fresh, so if you're really conservative you may use 9.0
branch instead. That's about 1 year old.

There are several useful tools I'm aware of - pgadmin (a nice GUI for
development / administration), phpPgAdmin (a web GUI), utilities like
pgfounine for analyzing slow queries, pgwatch for monitoring etc.

I know there were some GUI tools from EMS (http://www.sqlmanager.net) and
TOra (http://torasql.com). I guess there are other tools.

That depends - if you're looking for help from other community members,
IRC or one of these mailing lists is probably the right place. If you're
looking for support (paid), there are companies that provide such
services.
