The community is unlikely to add a new LOAD DATA command that does _almost_ everything COPY does. We are much more likely to incrementally improve COPY. The problem with a new command is that it becomes unclear when you should use COPY and when LOAD DATA, and it confuses users, and has maintenance overhead. If Bizgres wants a new command name, go for it, but it is unlikely that the community release is going to go in that direction, unless there is a fundamental agreement that COPY is broken and needs a major revamp, and I have heard no talk of that. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
