Just to give you a fair warning: I'm not going to be in favor of adding any "Oracle compatibility" functionality that overlaps with existing and/or standardized functionality. That kind of thing would lock us into an endless catch-up game and would induce users to code their applications to proprietary interfaces. I suppose some of the things you propose would be external applications, such as the export file reader or the SQL*Net proxy. The synonym functionality would be interesting to add, since there is no existing feature of that type. But random misfeatures such as the join syntax or the decode() function are going to have a hard time getting accepted. -- Peter Eisentraut [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
