Обсуждение: 6.5.3 RPMs are on ftp site
I've (finally) copied Lamar's 6.5.3 RPMs to
postgresql.org/pub/{SRPMS,RPMS}.
Vince, could we update our web page? It currently mentions v6.5.2 on
the main page as "the current release" and as having RPMs available on
our web site; both of these version numbers need to be bumped up.
Perhaps on the "Download PostgreSQL" page, we could add explicit
mention of RPMs in the second paragraph; something like:
The latest source is available from the _primary site_ via _FTP_. RPMs for RedHat Linux are available, both _source_
and_binary_, thanks to _Lamar Owens_.
where the new hyperlinks are
_source_ -> ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/SRPMS/
_binary_ -> ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/RPMS/
_Lamar Owens_ -> http://www.ramifordistat.net

Done. I gave Lamar his own paragraph.
For now I also dropped the link to the patches directory since it's
a major version behind and I dropped the bindist link since it's now
three minor versions behind and only has one binary in it. If either
suddenly become active I can put them back in easy enough. All of
this is on the Download page.
Vince.

Owen, with no 's'. Otherwise fine.
I know, splitting hairs -- especially since Owen and Owens is in reality the
same family (from two brothers, John and Robert, who came over from Ireland in
the mid 1700's....but this is not a genealogy list ;-)).

Oh, plural! No problem then :) Ok, it's fixed.
