Yeah, we should announce the mailing list. Actually, I did direct e-mail a bunch of people (including you) about it and invite them to the mailing list. So: http://pgfoundry.org/mail/?group_id=1000107 For discussing potential features, though, I'm personally reluctant at this point to discuss major features until I and my collaborators (example, newsysviews) have a concrete proposal together. It's far too easy to get sidetracked into a discussion of minutia and politics on -hackers; by generating a complete draft spec (at least) on a small mailing list, it's a lot easier to focus on specific goals and schedules, and discussions on hackers around detailed proposals tend to be a lot more focused. -- Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
