What part of it don't you like? Is it the fact that we have phase numbers in the phase name? Is it the fact that we count total phases? Is it that we have two numbers being current (phase + subphase)? -- Álvaro Herrera https://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services
