Yeah, that's good news too, though it definitely helps that Postgres is written in C. Most of the conformance improvements are in the C++ front-end and the C++ Standard Library. Still no export though. I personally believe that projects should move to C++ when possible, but I understand that there is still a perception that C is fundamentally faster. __ David B.
