It won't. We have far too many in the archives to risk breaking them. In fact, we (Magnus) went great lengths to implement a system so that old-style PHP links (of which we have a bunch in very old archives, including in commit messages) continue to work to this day. We're far too invested in the system now, because of how successful it has proved to be. -- Álvaro Herrera https://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
