I've removed the "This feature is unique to PostgreSQL", which I agree belongs in a press release, not docs. The explanation of a use case that would benefit from the feature seems valid and I've left that in. PostgreSQL docs are more technical and precise than any other DBMS, even DB2. Having read everybody else's docs, I'm inclined to say it would be easier to explain if I left out the details, as they do. You won't find a detailed explanation of commit guarantees in MySQL docs, for example. -- Simon Riggs http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/books/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training and Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
