So what? AFAIK the extension patch hasn't broken anything here that used to work. People can still install languages the way they always have. What we're talking about here is a way of installing languages that is arguably nicer than what they are doing now. The window for feature enhancements is already closed until 9.2, unless you want to go back and start working through every patch we marked Returned with Feedback during this last CommitFest. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
