I don't see how we can attribute this to anyone but Joe. Doing
otherwise would be disingenuous at best.

I am in favor of it being dropped completely:
The PostgreSQL Global Development Group is proud to announce
the release of version 7.3 of the the PostgreSQL object-relational
database management system (ORDBMS). PostgreSQL, the world's most advanced
open source database, provides solutions for many of the most demanding
applications in use today, saving businesses and governments millions of
dollars each year.

I disagree for two reasons: 1) I was out of town this weekend, and
not able to reply until this morning. :) 2) This is a press
release and not a program - I think last minute changes should
always be acceptable: if there is a need to change something,
let's do it. We only get one shot at this.
I also think we should just leave out the mention of bugs entirely.
No reason to point them out: it is implied that a nerw version
fixes bugs in the old one.

I meant those non-technical people who might not know what a makefile is,
but are responsible for the decision to use Postgres, e.g. managers.
