I do not think we should necessarily try to include every testing tool in the core distribution. What is important is that they be readily available: easy to find, easy to use, documented, portable. "Same license as the PG core code" is not on that list. An immediately relevant example is that the buildfarm server and client code aren't in the core distribution, and AFAIR no one has suggested that they need to be. 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
