Guys, how about some feedback; what do you think if I did some interviews with  
members of core and submitted that for the website?

Not a bad idea.

As another thoughts, what's happening with the Case Studies that were 
done ages ago but haven't made it to the website yet?

That'd still be useful I reckon.

:)

Regards and best wishes,

I think it is important to work to get those case studies
up on the web.   They should not have languished this long.

Sorry, my fault.  Will be sending them to Robert.

I think the time could be spent better in some other ways. The list
of mirror problems I recently posted to the general list, for example.
In paricular, a good README there would go a long way. You could go
over the existing site and check for bad links, typos, etc. There have
been lots of suggestions on the list (www, advocacy, and general)
about things that could be done to make the existing web site better,
while we wait for the new version. There is a todo list for the new
website out there that has unclaimed/unfinished items. You could
approach the site as a brand-new Win32 user who is interested in
PostrgeSQL and wants to learn more and possibly install it, and see
how the site works from that perspective. You could become the lead
in the newsgroup RFC brouhaha. You could help migrate gborg to the
new system, and find a way to dispay projects from both systems on
the main page in a fair way. Perhaps validate the pages for HTML compliance
and accessibility.
 
Digging out an answer to the oft-asked, never-answered question of
just how much traffic postgresql.org uses and how much money we need
to compensate the removing of ads from the site would be good too. :)
 
These are just some ideas of the top of my head as to what a site
webmaster could be doing.

I already put that as a suggestion on the todo, so I say go for it!

Err, wouldn't posting them here so I see them be a better idea?

Probably. I posted to general to get a wider audience able to test
out the local mirror connection problems, but a crosspost to www
would have been good. Here it is:
