I was recently given the honor of being made a committer (somewhat to my surprise). It occurred to me then that I didn't know who all the committers were. So I went to the web site but didn't see the info anywhere. Maybe a separate section on the developers page, or a little icon to distinguish them, would be a good thing. This isn't because I want to blow my own horn but because others might have the same question I did. 2. Has anyone ever tried to produce a version of the docs with a navigation sidebar? I often use the web site docs but I would like something like the Table of Contents as a sidebar (maybe in it own frame) that would help navigate without having to go to the top all the time. That would be a great advance. I'm suggesting it as an additional option, not to replace the existing docs setup. 3. As you probably know, I run the postgresql buildfarm. Not too long ago we added to our dashboard page some little icons that show configure flags that were used on the build: see http://www.pgbuildfarm.org/cgi-bin/show_status.pl . Ive looked at using text instead of these icons, but the results weren't very pleasing. Michael Glaesmann, who devised our theme, tried making some little text bearing icons, but I didn't like those much either. However, the icons we have aren't very good either; they jar visually, and I'd like something better. They need to be tiny - ideally 16x16. Any help would be appreciated. (make sure I'm cc'd on replies, please) cheers andrew
