My concern here is to arrive at a standards conforming role system. Clearly we've established that the current one doesn't do it. Moreover, I'm now convinced that some aspects of the current implementation arose from an attempt to implement the standard but failed because of misunderstandings. I'd be interested to know what incompatibilities you have found in other database systems, so we know what we're dealing with. -- Peter Eisentraut http://developer.postgresql.org/~petere/ ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
