My key concern is that we are setting ourselves up for failure by accepting a patch that hasn't attracted sufficient community interest. This patch needs way more eyeballs on it than it has gotten; which is not only bad in terms of the level of trust we should have in the patch right now, but it is a very negative signal about how much maintenance manpower it can expect in the future. Now the entire effort on KaiGai-san's part has been founded on the assumption that "if you build it, they will come"; and that is exactly the same argument I hear you making for continued investment in the project. But the track record so far, in terms of attracting hackers to work on the patch, says otherwise. 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
