I think it's better to direct downloads to the standard way. It gives us
download tracking ;-), and it also makes it appear more as "the official
postgresql installer" (which I beleive it is).
That said, please feel free to point this domains to whatever we have.
Another thought - the win32 install FAQ is now on
http://pginstaller.projects.postgresql.org, along with the step-by-step
walkthrough. Should this be merged onto the main site to be mirrored?
How does pgFoundry deal with serving up the static pages?
