There is a chapter on "Functions" in the Postgres SGML-based
documentation. It is probably not complete, but does cover most of the
major classes of functions. If you would like to update or modify
that, it would then be available in the main docs set.

doc/src/sgml/func.sgml

If you would like to contribute this, I'm sure it could be of help to
others. Our Tutorial and "HowTo" docs are the least actively
maintained and could use an infusion of information. Perhaps your docs
could be a Tutorial or User's Guide?
