I think this is really the issue that's being studiously ignored by a number of participants in this thread. Simply installing a tracker accomplishes diddly-squat. Getting to a point where the information in the tracker is actually valid, well-organized, etc. will require a LARGE amount of real work, both up-front and on a continuing basis, and I do not see where that effort is going to come from. Anybody who thinks it's just going to happen is living in a dream world. Anybody who thinks they can tell other people to do it, and then it will happen, is living in an entire fantasy universe (unless, perhaps, they are paying said people to do what they want). I'd be feeling a lot more positive about this whole thread if any people had stepped up and said "yes, *I* will put in a lot of grunt-work to make something happen here". The lack of any volunteers suggests strongly that this thread is a waste of time, just as the several similar ones before it have been. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
