That is not what "integrating dblink" means --- what Itagaki-san is talking about is moving the dblink_xxx functions into core. What you are talking about is actual SQL/MED functionality, which we should indeed try to get into core someday. But dblink is a dead end as far as standards compliance goes. Between that and the potential security issues, we should not put it in core. 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
