The 9.1 ones once they are out.  Having a URL whose content changes
significantly over time drives some of the Wikipedia crowd crazy.

I wouldn't even get into arguing over the main page.  I'd just add
"PostgreSQL 9.1 includes a true serialization implementation based on
the SerializableSI approach", add a footnote linking to the PostgreSQL
docs and your design page on the wiki, and call it a day.  Let the
revert geeks fight over how the tone of the page needs to be adjusted to
reflect this new referenced fact.
