Yes, agreed. Who knows what other issues we might hit if we went ahead, and the confusion we would cause for beta testers who already tested beta1. Update TODO item: * Un-comment all variables in postgresql.conf By not showing commented-out variables, we discourage people from thinking that re-commenting a variable returns it to its default. Another option is to allow commented values to return to their default values. -- 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 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
