Hi all,

I seem unable to log out of postgresql.org. I have tried in multiple browsers and have received the same error each time.

To reproduce:

Log in to https://www.postgresql.org
Navigate to the account page https://www.postgresql.org/account/
Click `Logout` on the lefthand nav bar
- The browser network tab shows a `GET` request to https://www.postgresql.org/account/logout/, which returns a 405.

The expected result is, of course, to be logged out, yet after the 405 I find I am still logged in. I can manually clear cookies to force a logout.

I do see this in the response header, which leads me to believe the logout call should be a POST, not a GET:

> allow: POST, OPTIONS

Jack
