Having looked at where we are now, it's going to take more than a little work to get everything in order. Peter had a good go at it, but that was a few releases ago. I've been wanting to make SUSE releases better for a few years now, so am happy to take this on long term. It's not a snap decision since I build on OpenSUSE daily, but from source, not RPMs. As you say, you're in a better position to sort out a stopgap in the short term and I can then take on the task after feature freeze when I'll have more time. In any case, we'll need to make them as consistent as possible between different Linuxes so I'll be relying on your packaging experience. -- Simon Riggs www.2ndQuadrant.com PostgreSQL Training, Services and Support -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
