I've pull following projects for 2018: * GiST API advancement * TOAST'ing in slices * Table density estimation for approximate queries * Extract scanning strategy to the separate entity from GiST/GIN/SP-GiST opclasses Oleg Bartunov, Teodor Sigaev, Andrey Borodin and I confirmed volunteering to mentor these projects this year. The only thing to clarify: are you volunteering to mentor TOAST'ing in slices this year? If no, please correct the wiki accordingly. ------ Alexander Korotkov Postgres Professional: http://www.postgrespro.com The Russian Postgres Company
