You could always start a page on the developer's wiki: http://developer.postgresql.org/ That would seem to be a good place to at least describe the problem in detail, show how you would like a feature to behave, and have people add the pros and cons of certain approaches. Certainly would be better to have a page to point to rather than trying to trawl through mailing archives (heck, the page could even mostly be a collection of such links). - -- Greg Sabino Mullane [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Key: 0x14964AC8 200801141104 http://biglumber.com/x/web?pk=2529DF6AB8F79407E94445B4BC9B906714964AC8 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iD8DBQFHi4gvvJuQZxSWSsgRA66dAKCGCPBPDfTFDoizE0WDwXBzDK/W3ACg8dwZ 99OvuSU9PPmG6XDPPK2iQzA= =Xseg -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq
