New versions of languages who change too much in a new version are doomed to fail. There are many such examples in history. Completely new languages are however not doomed to fail. So when we are talking about a plpgsql2, the changes should come from all the collective wisdome we have gained during the 16 years of its existence. When we are talking about a completely new language, then of course we should start from scratch we don't need to base it on any single language if we don't want to. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
