I have no problem having it moved to the wiki, though it does have HTML imagemap elements. I don't think much changes at the flow chart level from release to release so it would fine if it was just CVS HEAD. I also don't think many people do back-branch development. -- Bruce Momjian <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. + -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
