Perhaps, if we want to > change them, then that should be submitted as a separate patch? Yeah. I'm just saying that maybe this patch should adopt whatever wording we agree to, not that we need to change other places. On the other hand, since so many other places have adopted the different wording, maybe there's a reason for it and if so, does anybody know what it is. But I have to say that it does look inconsistent to me. -- Álvaro Herrera http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
