Should we go further back than 8.1?
I find these patches a bit excessive for backporting, especially 10 minor releases into the branch. Those who need Python 2.5 can use PostgreSQL 8.2. I consider that to be a new feature. The fact that the buildfarm exercises other combinations isn't evidence of a practical need. -- Peter Eisentraut http://developer.postgresql.org/~petere/ ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: You can help support the PostgreSQL project by donating at http://www.postgresql.org/about/donate
