I hate to tell you that every one of the following are exactly
equivalent for resolution purposes in the DNS:

PostgreSQL.org
postgreSQL.org
PostgreSQL.Org
PostgreSQL.ORG
POSTGRESQL.ORG
postgresql.org
PoStGrEsQl.oRg

And any other VaRIOus caPITalisation you care to think of.  DNS is
case-preserving and not case sensitive.  If you want people to find
you through the Web, it makes no difference at all.
