Ok, let's do that then.  SOP is to use the bug reporting form contained on the 
website, which posts a bug report to pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org, which is the 
canonical bugreport list.  That is if we want to get that formal.

Yes, it can.  I can use steganography to issue an RPM release announcement, 
too.  But will it be effective? :-)

If it isn't read, it won't be acted upon.  His announcements have been a 
difficult read, that's all. The substance is OK; the presentation is lacking, 
IMHO.
