Magnus Hagander 08b9ac643f Render list of supported versions on the main page
Now that we have more metadata, we can render this on the main page instead of
on the wiki. This commit copies all the text from the current wiki page, and
uses the new fields in the Version model to render the table on the same URL
as the reference was on before.

The PostgreSQL website
======================

The code in this repository is what backs the website at www.postgresql.org.

The authoritative repository for this code is on git.postgresql.org, but it's
free to be mirrored anywhere.

Technology
----------
The website code is written in `Python <http://www.python.org>`_ using
the `Django <http://www.djangoproject.com/>`_ framework. Not surprisingly,
`PostgreSQL <http://www.postgresql.org>`_ is used as the database. Further details
about the code and technology can be found in the different documents in the
docs directory.

Content
-------
A fair amount of the content pages of the website are just static HTML templates.
If you wish to edit these, you only need to look at the templates/pages/
subdirectory. The content in here is simple HTML, and can be edited as such.

Contributing
------------
We appreciate all (most?) contributions to this project. If you wish to
contribute, be sure to sign up to the `pgsql-www <http://www.postgresql.org/community/lists/>`_
mailinglist for any discussions, and post any suggested patches there. If you
want to make any major changes, be sure to have discussed those on the list first.

Licence
-------
The code for the website is licensed under
`The PostgreSQL Licence <http://www.opensource.org/licenses/postgresql>`_, which is
closely related to the BSD licence.
