no need to be rude to me for posting one single email to ANNOUNCE 
after years of providing the SUSE RPMs silently. There were other 
posts about RPM builds on ANNOUNCE, so I thought it would be the right 
place to announce mine as well.

BTW, what would be the correct forum to make PostgreSQL users aware of 
the appearance of new RPMs, if it is not ANNOUNCE? They are certainly 
not expected to be reading the HACKERS list.
