Users are encouraged to update to a newer release branch soon. In other words, 8.2 will be unsupported before any likely release of Windows 8. Furthermore, 8.2.4 was released on 2007-04-23 and is four and a half years old! You need to a least be testing with 8.2.22, since any fix made to the 8.2 series would get released in 8.2.23 not made retroactively to 8.2.4 . Testing with 9.0 or 9.1 would be much more useful. I am a Program Manager with the Ecosystem Engineering team at Microsoft. I am looking for a technical contact point to notify of compatibility issues with PostgreSQL. Could you please connect me to the appropriate individual for this? Most PostgreSQL work is done on these mailing lists, especially on pgsql-hackers, rather than by direct private correspondance. If there is a specific problem with PostgreSQL 8.2.4 and that problem still exists in the most recent patch release of the 8.2 line, 8.2.22, then please post a follow-up to this list or to the pgsql-hackers list with details on the problem. If you're looking to work directly with a single individual or non-public group to resolve issues with an obsolete version of PostgreSQL then you might want to get in touch with the EnterpriseDB folks. They're focused on commercial support and probably the only ones likely to be interested in very old releases. 8.2.4 is *ANCIENT* and behind on a LOT of bugfix patches, though; you should be testing with 8.2.22, which is the latest in the 8.2 bugfix series, rather than with 8.2.4. Personally I'd be inclined not to care about PostgreSQL 8.2.x on a newly released platform. It's four major releases old and will be officially unsupported any day now. There won't be any old installs to worry about and new installs should be using a current patch release and preferably a more recent major version. -- Craig Ringer -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
