Well, that would depend on your definition of "maintenance mode" ;-) Your statement would be true if you define it as "no new features" but that is nowhere near what I have in mind here. I'm thinking something closer to "we'll only fix critical security and data-loss risks"; and it would only apply to releases that are approaching the end of their life cycle. In particular, we need to define things in a way that explains/justifies changing more stuff in 8.3 than in 7.4. "Maintenance mode starts on day of release" is not only unhelpful but counterproductive for that discussion. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
