I didn't feel a need for it. It's true that the closer we get to feature freeze, the smaller the patch you should expect to drop on us sight unseen. Simon's proposal implies that this is a binary condition, but it's really more of a continuous process. Another point is that we've never wanted to discourage people from going full tilt right up to feature freeze; if we say "you must have something credible X months before freeze", that diminishes the value of free time that people might have after that point. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
