Sorry, my mistake.  PostgreSQL doesn't use upstart.

$ sudo /etc/init.d/postgresql restart

There is currently an effort to re-organize the contributor documentation underway.  Given its fragile state, I wouldn't want to disturb it sending work off in a different direction.  On the other hand, if you'd like to take over and complete it, feel free to take whatever direction you like. :)  Either way I suggest you try to coordinate with the folks working on that.

I hope people read changes made to the wiki.  I usually do.
