TIP 2
include timezone
correction. Obviously this has worked fine for a number of years on 7.1, but 8.1
is objecting to the time() cast.
What is the correct (or even any :-) way of converting a timestamp into a time
(without timezone etc.)?
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

You can CAST it:
test=# select now();
now

Thanks Andreas, I've ended up using CAST( ... AS TIME). I think the ::
notation might be fragile in this instance because

Current driver version is 8.02.0101 possibly with an updated DLL from
Inoue-san's website.

initiate complex queries on backend servers A and B, can I tell X's planner to
run a(A) and b(B) simultaneously, or is the only way to have these in distinct
sessions storing their results in tables on X?
