The 8.2.0 release went well. We spent a month more in beta than we planned, but that time helped to eliminate many bugs, and many that had existed in previous PostgreSQL major releases as well. We have had very few bug reports for 8.2.0, and will be doing a minor release in 1-2 weeks to get those fixes out to the user community.
The development community is now focused on 8.3, and discussion and patch application has already started. This is scheduled to be a shorter release cycle then normal, with feature freeze on April 1, with major functionality discussed and hopefully reviewed by the community at least a month before that. This would put beta in mid-May, and final release perhaps mid-July. Of course, this all might change based on community feedback. -- Bruce Momjian [EMAIL PROTECTED] EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. + ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not match
