Thread: Pre-built binary packages of PostgreSQL 9.2 Beta
I've seen the following statement made several places. "Pre-built binary packages of PostgreSQL 9.2 Beta are available from the project's downloads page for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, FreeBSD and Solaris." But I looking in the following links does not produce any results: http://www.postgresql.org/download/ or http://www.postgresql.org/download/windows/ or http://www.enterprisedb.com/products-services-training/pgdownload#windows Are we waiting for a refresh on the download page? -- Regards, Richard Broersma Jr.

Okay, should the 9.2 beta announcement and press releases be amended to show this link rather than the ones posted?
