FYI, I have a copy of the old plpgsql cookbook at:

        http://www.brasileiro.net:8080/postgres/cookbook/
        PostgreSQL CookBook Pages
        Roberto Mello
       
        http://techdocs.postgresql.org/guides/SetReturningFunctions
        PostgreSQL 7.3 Set Returning Functions
        Stephan Szabo

stored at:

        http://momjian.us/expire/cookbook.tgz

if someone wants to transfer them to the wiki.

Stephan's article is already on the wiki:
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Return_more_than_one_row_of_data_from_PL/pgSQL_functions
It needs an update.

I don't know about Roberto Mello's site.  Did we get a copyright
transfer or a license saying we could use the contents?

Nope, but I assumed it was BSD-licensed.  I see this Josh Berkus
copyright:

        --Copyright Josh Berkus, josh@...
        --permission granted to use anywhere provided that this
        --copyright statement remains in the code.
        --No warranty is given or implied.
        --Use at your own risk -- strictly beta code.

You're saying that Josh Berkus owns the copyright of the entire site?
That seems unlikely.

I think the way we should go about this is somebody talks to Roberto and
gets his approval on us using his content on the Wiki (the way we did
with Pavel upthread).  Otherwise I think it's a nonstarter.
