I don't recall that we've fixed anything since September that seemed to warrant an immediate release.
The backup+pg_clog failure issues fixed last week have been a nasty problem hitting people for a while. Backup corruption is obviously serious. Only reason I think it wasn't a higher priority issue is that it didn't happen every time, and the people impacted were eventually able to work around it. Concern about that problem is why I popped off a message earlier today, about whether the fixes committed have been confirmed outside of Simon's own testing.
I was curious how 9.0 fared last year for comparison, here's that data: Version Date Days Weeks 9.0.0 09/20/10 9.0.1 10/04/10 14 2.0 9.0.2 12/16/10 73 10.4 9.0.3 01/31/11 46 6.6 9.0.4 04/18/11 77 11.0 9.0.5 09/26/11 161 23.0 So the average for the first three point releases was around 6 weeks apart. -- Greg Smith 2ndQuadrant US g...@2ndquadrant.com Baltimore, MD PostgreSQL Training, Services, and 24x7 Support www.2ndQuadrant.us -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
