At least with my articles on Techdocs, the formatting was more complex than
that (code examples are a real pain). And it is what Elein is doing now,
which is also a bottleneck.

The advantage of a good CMS is that it "runs itself"; people contribute stuff
and other people approve it and it goes up, and this can all be a distributed
effort. Currently, people need root-level shell access to the VM to modify
anything.

jobs.postgresql.org? End of January, maybe. It's code we've done before.

Yes. Let me find out from David Fetter if the test server is still
accessable.

That's why I said "full time"; right now I balance community management &
contributions with direct-pay work.
