Yes, I had thought about that --- I put something about migrating to 7.3 on a web page and put the URL in the release notes, and the URL kept becoming invalid as they changed web configurations. I am afraid we have to keep this in CVS so we don't lose it over time. It could be huge. Current release notes for 7.4 is around 500 lines. I think I could do this in another 500 lines. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 8: explain analyze is your friend
