Count me as both intrigued and interest. Josh and others may know my feelings… The Postgres tutorial needs to be entirely blown up. There's a great set of reference docs, but in terms of getting started its quite painful. I suspect with some information on what people are paying to in the existing docs, as well as various resources such as postgresguide.com (http://postgresguide.com) we could create a tutorial that is not only helpful but helps compete quite well in the broader DBA/app dev ecosystem.
