Completely agreed that there's a lot of need for review and testing. I just wondered because of the reference to the open item list whether you were potentially thinking about something else. > I think if we spend the next month reviewing what's already in, we could > ship a credible beta before PGCon.

Even if we ship Beta1 before pgcon, the work doesn't stop there. At least I hope so, because if it does it will mean that nobody is testing beta 1. > But if we start focusing > on 9.6 development right now, which is what some current threads seem to > be after, 9.5 is going to be a disaster. FWIW, I personally don't intend to start actual significant new development till early/mid June. I think I, and probably some others, will have to have a couple design discussions until then though. For one it'll be hard to discuss things effectively at pgcon without that.
