Yep.

Would the best way to do this be changing the wording to say something like:

"PostgreSQL can be downloaded as source code from any of the many mirror 
sites:"

With a link after it directing to somewhere that gives the list.  The 
present "www.postgresql.org" with the list of mirrors would probably be 
adequate, but it'll need to be a different url than the straight 
"www.postgresql.org" as that's going to change as soon as the new portal 
is in place.

Does this sound like a workable approach for now?

Regards and best wishes,
