Thread: what happened to the website?
http://www.postgresql.org looks bloody awful in firefox on debian, until I switch font (on the site) from 'normal' to 'large'. Anyone else seeing that? I'm sure it was fine a couple of weeks back. -- 'My life, and by extension everyone else's, is meaningless.' -- Bender Rasputin :: Jack of All Trades - Master of Nuns

The website went down long before the news was posted to slashdot. By the time it hit slashdot, things were fixed already.
