Uh, can you clarify since I can't find details on what they preserve. The reason I liked the new wording is that the slot is only a small part of the receiving path. Almost by definition, the slot is specified as _part_ of the connection parameter --- it is not the connection parameter. Can you think of better wording that would be clearer than what we had? -- Bruce Momjian <[email protected]> https://momjian.us EDB https://enterprisedb.com Do not let urgent matters crowd out time for investment in the future.
