Agreed. I have committed the SGML changes that make things valid now, but I will postpone the xmllint addition until the 9.5 branch, complete with more documentation. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
