BTW, another possible compromise is to move abstime into a contrib module; we've always accepted that contrib modules can be held to a lower standard than core features. I'm not volunteering to do the work for that, but it's worth contemplating. Alternatively, we could turn the origin point for abstime into a pg_control field, and regard changing it as a reason for a database not being pg_upgrade'able unless it lacks any abstime columns. 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
