I made myself the same question actually, and thought about putting them both in the singular. I only backed off because I noticed that the directories themselves are in plural (an old mistake of mine, evidently). Maybe we should follow that instinct and use the singular for these. If we do that, we can rename the directories to also appear in singular when/if the patch to add standard page headers to the SLRUs lands -- which is going to need code to rewrite the files during pg_upgrade anyway, so the rename is not going to be a big deal. -- Álvaro Herrera Breisgau, Deutschland — https://www.EnterpriseDB.com/ "Crear es tan difícil como ser libre" (Elsa Triolet)
