I have put up a list of projects being worked on and their TODO lists in
hope that people will find it easier to work on them:

Wasn't there a patch posted many months ago for PITR. IIRC it wasn't
complete, but would be a good starting point for those interested in
helping out. If it's in the archives it would be nice to add a link to
it on the project page... which brings up the question on whats the
process for updating these pages?  Perhaps they should be moved into the
wiki framework up on techdocs?

Browsing that page I noticed tablespaces item. I have this file we have 
prepared long time back. I think it deserves a mention on that page.

May be I should edit it to completion and then send. But this is for review 
for others so that any bugs are ironed out..

I have the latest version of what J.R. and Patrick were working on, and
plan to review and apply it in the next couple weeks.  However, my
understanding is that it's just some necessary infrastructure
(improvement of the WAL file format) and doesn't make any real progress
in terms of creating user-accessible functionality.

They are just web pages.  If someone want to set up wiki and pull the
content, I can remove my versions.

http://techdocs.postgresql.org/guides is an open wiki instance, you could 
just put it there.  I've edited a couple of pages there.  Nothing fancy, 
but it is pretty easy to edit.  You don't (or didn't have to until 
recently if it's changed) have to register to use it.

I think it is just easier for me to edit the HTML.
