I think direct edition of Todo is discouraged, particularly for outsiders. Suppose we decided that we didn't want to implement your suggestion for whatever reason? We get lots of people coming out of the blue with a patch to implement something they found on Todo, only to figure out that we didn't want the idea implemented in the first place. Surely we don't want to turn people away from development just because Todo is not well managed. > Suppose the feature request was not a trivial one, but > maybe a "DEPENDS ON <object>" clause for "CREATE FUNCTION" > to allow PostgreSQL to deny requests to drop a table/view/ > function that is needed by a function - where would I pro- > pose that? On -hackers, just like any other feature request, trivial or not. -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ PostgreSQL Replication, Consulting, Custom Development, 24x7 support -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
