We have limited time remaining here; and we can always consider relaxing the restriction in the future when we have more time to think through the issues. It'll still be a big improvement over what we have now. ...Robert -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
