Not sure about your position here. You claimed that it would be a good idea to freeze the on disk format for at least a couple of versions. Do you argue here that this cycle shouldn't start with the next version, or did you reverse your thought ? If the former, I think you're right. There are some too big changes close to being made - if I have read this list correctly. Table spaces and PITR would certainly change it. But if the freeze could start after 7.5 and last two-three years, it might help things. -- Kaare Rasmussen --Linux, spil,-- Tlf: 3816 2582 Kaki Data tshirts, merchandize Fax: 3816 2501 Howitzvej 75 Åben 12.00-18.00 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2000 Frederiksberg Lørdag 12.00-16.00 Web: www.suse.dk ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
