This is in the old 8.2 MSI installer, which doesn't even support Windows 7 (and would require more work than just this to do so). The last ever release of 8.2 will happen long before Windows 8 is going to go GA - it's safe to say this version is never going to be supported on Windows 8. -- Dave Page Blog: http://pgsnake.blogspot.com Twitter: @pgsnake EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
