Thread: minor modifications

Here are a couple of tweaks to the development website:

jdbc.patch

Point the download target for JDBC to be jdbc.postgresql.org instead of
gborg.  In general I found it a little confusing how interfaces
(http://wwwmaster.postgresql.org/docs/interfaces) and downloads matched up
pretty closely, but not quite.

irc.patch

Rename rooms to channels, add linked urls ("irc://") and mention french
and spanish specific channels.

developer.patch

Add the build farm to the list of testing resources.  Rename Tools to CVS
and replace the dead interfaces repository with a link to instructions on
how to retrieve the cvs repository.

Finally I notice there are a number of files with window EOL characters in
the repository.

This should point to the /current/ docs not /7.4/.  My copy of the
database had an empty docs table which made it look like this
functionality didn't exist or was broken.

Tools should stay tools, as people have talked about adding additional
resources that would fall under this... a LXR interface to the code comes to
mind and I think there have been others.   Also the -interfaces link should
work, if it doesn't it should be fixed because it works on
developer.postgresql.org.  Agreed though that the CVS howto doc from
developer.* is missing.

Well until these tools materialize, I think CVS is more accurate.  Perhaps
"Source Code Tools" or something along those lines.  The interfaces
repository link works fine, but the only thing in it is a completely out
of date version of libpqxx.

Patch applied. I added a link to PgOleDb as well.

Patch applied with a minor edit to one sentence.

Patch applied - title changed simply to 'Source Code'.

Thanks Kris.
