:-) Creating a community account and loging in to the site. Going through the
links that have been generated and see if the work. If you spot errors then
modifying a page and see if that all works.

Some ideas off the top of my head:
* Add an option to buildsite script in the tools directory to regenerate a
specific page and/or pages not linked to anything
* Add some form of geolocation to users profiles that we can use later.
* Save the information currently sent to the bugs mailing list into a table in
the database.

I also need to go through the techdocs website and begin sifting through the
content that has been added, this might drum up a few more things.

the one at http://xzilla.postgresql.org/todo ? it was actually pretty
accurate, though could probably use some new tasks. Currently on my plate
also is testing the s9y blog 1.0-beta software. While thats not directly
working on the pg project, we use it for planetpostgresql and will be
updating to it eventually. If you wanted to help with that no one would
complain.
