I could not disagree more strongly. We're in *beta* now. It's not like the last CF closed a couple weeks ago. Heck, I'm about to open the first CF for 9.2 in just over a week. Also, a patch like this needs several months of development, discussion and testing in order to fix the issues Robert already identified and make sure it doesn't break something fundamental to concurrency. Which would mean delaying the release would be delayed until at least November, screwing over all the users who don't care about this patch. There will *always* be another really cool patch. If we keep delaying release to get in one more patch, then we never release. At some point you just have to take what you have and call it a release, and we are months past that point. -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
