I would love if someone fixed pg so that one can get the standard behaviour. It would however have to be a setting that can be changed so we are still backward compatible. > that even if I write a patch to start migration, I'm not likely to get > it in. Just changing to uppercase would break old code so such a patch should not just be commited. But would people stop a patch that is backward compatible (in the worst case a setting during initdb)? I'm not so sure they will. -- /Dennis Björklund ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
