Aside from being a dubious "business requirement" imho, I should remind you that a decision was made long ago by the community to merge all the postgresql.org subsites together, and not to create new ones. Reviewing and potentially overturning that decision is definitely not something for this forum.

So, can we start composing business requirements?

I can think of a few:

1) Should be part of www.postgresql.org or be kb.postgresql.org.
2) Should support full-text, category, date, and author searching.
3) Should publish credit for submitters and sponsors of articles.
4) Should manage bi-directional translation of articles.
5) Should be extremely easy to write & edit articles, requiring no 
knowledge of HTML or CVS or other command-line techniques.
6) Should support an approval process for both new articles and edits.

Huh?   I don't get it.  How does "part of www.postgresql.org" contradict 
that?

It doesn't, but kb.postgresql.org would as it would be a separate site. I don't object to something like that being proposed, but given the previous decision (which goes back to around the launch of the previous www site iirc), it should be proposed in the right place.

Of course, that doesn't mean that this group cannot decide whether or not to make that proposal.

Right, the proposal would be "www.postgresql.org or kb.postgresql.org".  
Presumably, the WWW group would decide on www.postgresql.org.
