I believe all hackers have already been working diligently. They have - but I see no reason why an imperfect process should delay the hard work of developers getting into the hands of users that want it for 12 months or more. It'll annoy users and potentially alienate important developers - and there are few enough of them able to work on features of this complexity as it is. -- Dave Page EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
