That's probably overplaying your hand a little bit (and it sounds a bit catty, too). Some testing got done and it had some value. It just wasn't enough to make Peter feel like it was worthwhile. That doesn't mean that no testing got done and that it had no value, or that the same thing would happen this time. I'm as skeptical about this whole rush-out-an-alpha business as anyone, but I think that skepticism has to yield to contrary evidence, and people saying "I would test if..." is legitimate contrary evidence. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
