The release notes seem to be in two places, with slightly different
information.

The page Google sends back for most 8.3 queries
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/static/release-8-3.html

and the one you get from the PostgreSQL beta program link
http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/release-8-3.html

Not really a big deal as there is the "current as of" heading up top, but
until just now I didn't even know there were two places to look.

However, neither one of them show what redirect_stderr was renamed to. It
says something like "... was renamed to foo. redirect_stderr was renamed
to bar was renamed to ..."

This is the docs distributed with the latest point release. (note, it's
currently still on beta3, but should be beta4 soon)

and the one you get from the PostgreSQL beta program link
http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/release-8-3.html

these are compiled regularly from CVS head, so reflect more current
information. Note that after beta though, they will represented
vapor-ish-ware :-)

Yeah, that should get cleaned up.
