For that, you should be using categories, and make sure that
www.planetpostgresql.org only carries the PostgreSQL articles. I know
others have done just that (can't remember an example right now, but I
think xzilla does), and it works just fine.

Remember, www.planetpostgresql.org != people.planetpostgresql.org.
