I was looking for some books on PostgreSQL, and noticed the links for 
the Dossier series return a 404, and http://www.ptf.com/ just mentions 
that the project was abandoned.

I googled the title and couldn't find anything other than references to 
ptf.com

Do folks think this should be removed, or should we just remove the links and 
add a note that it is no longer available/OOP ?

Are they available from someplace else? If so we should just link there ;-)
If not, we should probably remove them completely.
