Hackers, I would like to ask you about currency of the work above. I propose to develop functionality of GIN and GiST q-gram indexes with following features: 1) Handle edit distance (e.g. levenshtein distance) and LIKE/ILIKE queries(using GIN partial match if no full q-grams can be extracted from wildcard) 2) Support of various q 3) Support of positional q-grams in GIN (for more effective edit distance filtering) 4) Various signature size in GiST As you can see, there are some significant differences from pg_trgm. Do you see this functionality useful? If you think this functionality useful, where do you like to see it: separate project, contrib module, core (of course, in the case when code have sufficient quality)? I have stong confidence level about implementability of this project in few month. That's why I could propose this as an GSoC project.
