Well, the manuals would be a good source of information for this. Go to
the website, and click "Documentation". There is a list of manuals on

http://techdocs.postgresql.org/ is a good place to start. Also, check
the mailing list archives for specific points.
Oh, there is a French-language community site too at:
http://www.postgresqlfr.org/
One of their news stories concerns a company moving from Oracle to
PostgreSQL too.
