Maybe I'm just lacking in imagination, but what's the argument against spelling it CURRENT DATABASE? AFAICS, that doesn't require reserving anything new at all, and it also looks more SQL-ish to me. SQL generally tries to emulate English, and I don't normally speak_hyphenated_words. -- 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
