I've requestsed that Jeorgen(sp?) move this over to GBorg ... its something that can, and should be, built seperately from the base distribution, along with at least a dozen other things we have bloating the distribution now :( but at least that one hasn't been integrated yet ... We got into 'creeping featurisms' in the beginning because we had no other really central location to put stuff ... we do now, and with better mechanisms in place for dealing with 'multiple maintainers' ... its about time we start to trim the fat, before we can't fit through the proverbial door anymore ... Peronally, I find it quite annoying to have to download the complete server distribution just to get libpq installed so that I can install mod_php4 ... and with all the talk about 'why mysql vs pgsql' that has been going on lately, its time to start look at how to make it easier to 'add a new interface' without having to download the whole distribution 'yet again' ... ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
