The only concern I would have about this is that a good portion of the
news items that mention postgresql don't always do so in a positive
light. Usually this is do to lack of knowledge on the part of the
press, but the point remains that we probably would need some ground
rules as to what kind of articles could be linked to from the advocacy
page. I have half a notion to create an "anti-fud" page that would link
to articles but then have 1 or 2 paragraphs to correct misinformation
that might have been posted, but I whether that falls under something we
want on the advocacy site I don't know.
