We would like to merge our patches into the last release of the
pgaccess (apperently this is now in the postgres tree), and make this
for the future patches too.
So we set up pgaccess.org, with it's own cvs, mailing lists and
homepage. When Iavor searched for the last release almost a war started.

We would like to syncronise the postgres tree, and to give people a
place where they can find the software, tha latest release, can drop
wishes, and browse the to-do list easier. Is there any to-do list in
the postgres package regarding the pgaccess?
