Rodney-

Main Postgresql Site (links to list of mirrors):
www.postgresql.org

Postgresql Main Mirror that works ok:
http://www3.us.postgresql.org/

Main Postgresql Doc Page (Look under "books"):
http://www3.us.postgresql.org/users-lounge/index.html

The GNU Public Doc portions or Bruce Momjian's book is good (Addison-Wesley
publishes hard copy):
http://www.ca.postgresql.org/docs/awbook.html

Alpha Version of Postgresql getting started book:

Post questions here too.  I have been using postgresql for almost a year to
store multi-lingual data and act as backend for J2EE apps.  I may be able to
help a little.

My personal favorite thing about Postgresql is it can easily default to
UTF-8 tables. "initdb -E UNICODE" - try it, it's fun and easy!

aloha-
