The release notes are almost certainly going to get worked over quite a bit between now and 9.2 final; there is no need to assume that the beta1 version has to reflect a final decision. I'd vote for starting a separate thread to solicit people's opinions on whether we need names in the release notes. Is there anybody on -hackers who would be offended, or would have a harder time persuading $BOSS to let them spend time on Postgres if they weren't mentioned in the release notes? There'd still be a policy of crediting people in commit messages of course, but it's not clear to me whether the release note mentions are important to anybody. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
