Hmm, looks like some of the things I was thinking about have been added
recenelt... cool. One question I have still remains though, on the main
developer page (http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Development_information) it
has a link to the "current commitfest", which points to september's
commitfest page. ISTM the current commitfest is July's, since that's the one
we're currently working on. Also, if you're looking to submit a new patch,
the July page also has a link to Septembers page, so you end up where you
need to be; but if you want to see what is currently being worked on, going
to Septembers page has no link to July's page, so you end up having to hit
the search engine to find the right page. So, I'm think that the first link
should point to whichever commitfest page is either actively being worked on,
or will be next to be worked on (the link being updated next when the July
fest closes). Any objections?
