http://advocacy.postgresql.org/download/ is out of date, I'd be happy to

Could you please check:

http://advocacy.postgresql.org/download/index2.php

If everything is ok, we'll move it to index.php

BTW... I saw that links to rpm packages are.. let me write it:

http://www.postgresql.org/ftpsite/binary/v7.4.2/redhat/redhat-9/postgresql-7.4.2-1PGDG.i386.rpm

Instead of this, what about removing the package from the link; so that
people can see the directory structure and download all packages?
i.e
http://www.postgresql.org/ftpsite/binary/v7.4.2/redhat/redhat-9/

Comments?

Here's a crazy idea, how about if I give you a short php snippet that
goes to the latest branch in the ftp site, and always grabs the latest
version information and provides links, and looks identical to whats
there, then theoretically the page will always be up to date without any
work?

BTW looks good, links work.

Sounds good to me...

Oh, Robert, you own index.php and it has 644, so I could not overwrite it
:( 664 is enough for me (or could you please copy index2.php to
index.php?)

Please do... it's so far down on my todo list I've about given up on it.  The
code is in cvs in the pgweb project on gborg... hopefully we dont have too
many cowboy changes going on the production servers

It's been discussed in the past and the decision basically came down against
it.  We link to the "one true package" in order to reduce complexity for the
end users....

I'm getting horrendous diffs when looking at the two versions... can you
see what's going on with that?

Himm, I've changed just the links, removed Red Hat 8.0 and added Fedora
Core 1. We don't have Red Hat 8.o packages, so I replaced it with Fedora.
