IMHO I think display order is very important to users. First, don't
break the select *, no matter how bad it is to code that. Next, don't
break copy or pg_dump/restore. We've fielded a lot of questions on
the ordering of columns for display and simplicity reasons.
The storage order is orthogonal to the display order. display order can be
handled
in attnum and the new storage order can be the new column.

Subject: Adding MERGE to the TODO list
Reply-To:
Can we add the MERGE command to the TODO list?

And yes, I realize it is not for 7.5.
It would be good to be able to say it is on
the list for some future release, however.

he goal is publication on General Bits and techdocs.
There is also the possibility of publishing a version in
other more marketing oriented venues.
Contact me if you are interested in working on this
or have work you are willing to share on this.

PS: Sorry for the cro

All advice is greatly appreciated.

But as it is now, a resident python person would be extremely

Right. Sorry. My brain was over on parameter issues and
I did not reread my original bug...

I can create a function with a domain and
define it to return a domain.
The parameter is checked to see if it qualifies
I agree with Tom on this. Good operator combinations
are hard to find when you are creating new operators.
=> is a particularly good one.
Barring any override from the SQL200x standard,
I would strongly suggest AS, too.

The key value of having both SD vs. GB is scope.
We *do* want to be able to have dictionaries with
scope that is function specific,
statement specific and global (available to all functions).
I do use plpython primarily for running aggregates.
