It does seem like Kevin could have done better there. However, I think that Kevin was taking responsibility for the situation, and that it wasn't accurate to suggest he blamed others. I thought his account of the constraints that he operated under was a simple factual account. I also don't think it's useful for you to discourage revert on the grounds that it's a slippery slope. Admitting fault doesn't need to be made any harder. -- Peter Geoghegan -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
