It is on the archives, here:

As Dave said, it was sent to pgsql-www, and I think the newsserver
doesn't carry that group (which is a bug that we've asked Marc to fix,
but as all things Marc, it takes quite a while).

Maybe I made a mistake and should have not taken pgsql-general out of
the CC line.

I don't think the news gateway is all that trustworthy nowadays.
