This may be a stupid question, but what are datoptions? $ git grep datoptions $ > If this is the case, then I think we could just decide that their name > is reloptions due to hysterical reasons and be done with it. Yeah. It's particularly unfortunate that we call them "reloptions" in the code but "storage parameters" in the documentation. Neither is a particularly good name, and having two different ones is extra-poor. But I'm fine with leaving the names as they are and moving on, if no one objects too much. Speak now or don't complain about it after I write the patch! ...Robert -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
