Sadly, this approach seems to have a high percentage probability of being completely wasted effort. So I agree with Robert Treat: we're wasting our time on this. As I said upthread, I am still willing to help edit release notes, either now or most likely in the future, if there is a list of commits to start from (and although I may find it odd, Bruce feels it's the easier half of the job, so, fine). If that is helpful, great. If it's not, that's OK too. ...Robert -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
