This should be a different thread *but* to my knowledge there is more 
than WWW active on Gborg. Or at least there is some data that people 
still wished moved.

Gborg needs to be shutdown in a scheduled manner. I proposed a schedule 
last year but it was largely overlooked:

http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-general/2006-08/msg01167.php

My rather bold attempt to reach all people associated with Gborg was not 
met with positive responses either (granted due to a mistake on my end).

That pretty much sums it up. Bruce you can either come to the party with 
a smile or a grin. It is your party. If you come with a smile everyone 
will be a lot happier.
