yes. spammers contribute more though :-)

some of them certainly are. i noticed someone just submitted several example
functions into the online docs, those are certainly useful for others and
probably would be good to incorporate into the docs.
You will have to deal with spam though. At first it wasnt a problem. Then we
had to set up keyword blockers (mortgage,poker,etc...) soon we will be
integrating one of those "type in this image" systems... spam sucks.

links to administer comments.

The source code is available from our project page:
http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/pgweb/projdisplay.php
look under the portal module.
please direct any follow up questions to pgsql-www. Thats where all of the
web stuff is actually worked on, so the folks who know the system all hang
out there.
