I think it would help if there was some way to prepare functions to allow them to be posted and understood more easily. These would help: * a name obfuscator, so people can post functions without revealing inner workings of their company and potentially lose intellectual property rights over code posted in that way * a pretty printer, so we can better understand them when we see 'em Without these, I think we need to realise that many people will never post their SQL at all. -- Simon Riggs 2ndQuadrant http://www.2ndQuadrant.com -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
