List pgsql-general
yup I did. The reason why I wanted examples was to amply demonstrate,to clients, that postgresql is viable. 
It is kinda weird if the only examples I have are restricted to the postgresql _community_ websites themselves.

This may sound irrelevant, but please do understand the huge opposition to have anything to do with PG in the whole CMS/e-store community. In fact I even saw a request to eliminate postgresql support in Drupal 7 (that was taken care of by the valiant efforts of the PG community) : http://drupal.org/node/337146

Plus, it would have been interesting to know which version of Drupal, Ubercart, etc was being used for such deployments. Again, it is relevant because of certain (older) benchmarks which denote significantly worse performance because of the suboptimal way that Drupal integrates with Postgresql : http://mikkel.hoegh.org/blog/2008/oct/13/drupal-database-performance-mysql-postgresql/
There has been _nothing_ to disprove the above numbers, ever since - please correct me if I am wrong.

What does a person making a case for Postgres do in this situation ?

thanks
