Your reasoning is that because some unrelated program on an unrelated machine breaks, we should abandon all work on all programs on machines in the the DNS domain? > I still > don't trust dynamic content on postgresql.org to work reliably. Well, if something doesn't work, please help fixing it rather than duplicating it. Your build breaks just as often as anything else. (Remember last week.) And I want to know when the postgresql.org build was ever broken in the last two years. Right now it just seems like a waste of resources and it confuses the onlookers. ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It broke because the style sheet requirements changed, not because something on my machine broke. Yes, mine has broken in the past too, but I don't see a problem with too builds. > Right now it just seems like a waste of resources and it confuses the > onlookers. OK, you still haven't told me how often the postgresql.org build runs. If it is frequent enough, we can remove my link and re-add it if postgresql.org breaks again. -- Bruce Momjian| http://candle.pha.pa.us [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup.| Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073 ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])

Bruce said he does it because postgresql.org is regularly broken. To that I say, fix it. If he says he does it out of joy, then I don't care. However, maybe we should structure the developer website listing differently, such as Development version of the documentation * Mirror 0 * Mirror 1 so onlookers see that they are two more or less identical versions of the same service. ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
