For me even September 1st does not seem too late. Major version up bring users pains including backup/restore application imcompatibilty... IMO to justify those pains we need to give users major enhancements. Honestly I don't understand why we should rush the major version up. -- Tatsuo Ishii ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
