Don't think so. The patches would be "derived code" that only exist because of the BSD licensed PostgreSQL base. Being "derived code" they'd have to be released as BSD and GPL wouldn't enter the picture, regardless if they're released separately as add-on patches or not. :-) Regards and best wishes, Justin Clift > -- > Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us > [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (610) 359-1001 > + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road > + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073 -- "My grandfather once told me that there are two kinds of people: those who work and those who take the credit.
