The docs we have can be found at 
http://www.postgresql.org/devel-corner/docs/postgres/
While they're usable, I don't think there's anyone around here who
wouldn't agree that they could stand improvement.  If you can read code
and write English, then Uncle Sam wants *YOU* to help improve the docs.
Feel free to step up to the plate and swing away ...
