Sounds good > 3. comments Not sure about that. If comments are just user text, then probably not. I'm guessing you might want that for something else? I would prefer it if you had a plan to introduce user definable parameters, similar to custom_variable_classes. Perhaps call this "custom_table_options". So when we load a table and it has an option we don't recognise we ignore it if it is one of the customer_table_options. custom_table_options will help us define special behaviours for datatypes, indexes, replication etc that relate to the specific role and purpose of individual tables. -- Simon Riggs www.2ndQuadrant.com PostgreSQL Training, Services and Support -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
