"he" is still in the making, so there's no 8.4 release as such yet.
"You" have to wait, for "he" will come. ;)

hope you don't feel offended by the joke. :P

postgresql.org is a general place. If you need to test devel release (cvs head),
you have to be careful with it - as for every update you will have to dump and restore, and it might be very bumpy road - so you have to be careful. Instruction on how to obtain cvs head version ("he" development version) can be found at http://wiki.postgresql.org/index.php/Working_with_CVS

Here is yesterday's snapshot:

http://yum.pgsqlrpms.org/srpms/8.4/postgresql-8.4devel_20081118.tar.bz2

and its md5 sum:

http://yum.pgsqlrpms.org/srpms/8.4/postgresql-8.4devel_20081118.tar.bz2.md5

...or maybe better:

ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/snapshot/dev/postgresql-snapshot.tar.bz2

There's a daily snapshot available for download off the main dl tree.
Go to the download page and look for the link to browse the mirrors
directly.  Pick on and look for snapshot.  You get to compile it
yourself, but it's pretty easy to do.  Or you can do anonymous CVS
checkout, but there's a fair bit of extra kit you need to make it
yourself from CVS.

Just a tip... 8.4 isn't released... it isn't even beta yet.

... on a UNIX/Linux machine. It's less fun on Windows, though still not
actually all that bad if you're unlucky enough to be reasonably familiar
with Windows dev tools.

The guys from EnterpriseDB are so kind to provide snapshot builds of the Windows
version as well:
