Re: Mirroring PostgreSQL related content

Speaking for my site, www.varlena.com/GeneralBits, only,
I prefer to have a prominent (not deep) link on postgresql.
I do not want my content mirrored by I want the link to be useful.

Although I have been slacking in writing new articles, there is a
3 year repository of articles on my site.  The point of these
articles was to help postgres users--it is my return to the community.
As it stands, most people get to my articles through google and
not the postgresql.org web site.

This is just one point of view from a heavy content provider of
postgresql articles.  People who have a few articles may well
want them to be hosted on postgresql.org.

In the past we have been lax about organizing and maintaining
individual informational articles.  Techdocs (ack!) It may be possible
to push this over onto planetpostgres as long as we give ample
visibility to its link.  And people know where to post articles or
links to them.
