Well, we do have a right, e.g., we would not allow someone to repeatedly post patches for a Postgres extension we don't manage, or the jdbc driver. I also don't think we would allow someone to continue posting patches for a feature we have decided to reject, and I think we have decided to reject the patch in in its current form. I think we might accept a trimmed-down version, but I don't see the patch moving in that direction. Now, of course, if I am the only one who feels this way, I can suppress these emails on my end. -- Bruce Momjian <br...@momjian.us> https://momjian.us EDB https://enterprisedb.com Do not let urgent matters crowd out time for investment in the future.
