Well I may or may not be an exception but I can say that I would never
have thought to look in the FAQ for that info. It is entirely possible
that, I wouldn't think of that because of the rather up to my ears I am
in all of this every day. I would prefer to hear what others think about
whether or not the FAQ is a place to hold it.

What is the timeline for the next major PostgreSQL release?

Point to /developer/roadmap :)
