Seems to me that for there to be a *bit* of a barrier might not be a bad thing... If "purported bugs" had to be acknowledged before going into the bug tracker system, that wouldn't seem a bad thing. That would mean that the frequent "I don't understand what I'm doing and didn't read the documentation" reports could be quickly triaged away, which strikes me as an important prerequisite for further automating things. -- select 'cbbrowne' || '@' || 'ntlug.org'; http://cbbrowne.com/info/sap.html FLORIDA: Relax, Retire, Re Vote. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not match
