Well, I wonder how many users just upgrade psql vs upgrade the server.
We have established a project policy that psql backslash commands will
support servers at least back to 7.4, and a great deal of work has
already been expended in support of that goal. It is not within the
charter of this patch to ignore or redefine that policy.
Does that mean that we can drop the 7.3 syntax or should we just keep it?
For future references, where can I find the various project policies?
Thanks
Emmanuel
