Not an objection but an observation. The developer wiki seems to be a
catchall for contributors to put various stuff on. There is patch
status, advocacy policies, release policies etc...

Based on your description of wiki.postgresql.org it is supposed to be
a replacement for techdocs.

To me, they have different purposes.
