Have we resolved whether the API and the dump/restore strategy are
acceptable? The code needs review too, but not till we've settled
on the basic question whether we like the feature set.
There were several discussion and we tried to satisfy a claims.
We added the ability of creation of FTS with one command
(just create GIN index on text attribute), which many
people like a lot, we changed SQL syntax to be more SQL-ish and we like it.
We discussed the new FTS on two conferences in Moscow and got positive
opinions. Also, we wrote FTSBOOK
( http://mira.sai.msu.su/~megera/pgsql/ftsdoc/ )
in english and FTS introduction in russian
( http://www.sai.msu.su/~megera/postgres/talks/fts_pgsql_intro.html ).
For the period from the patch was announced there were > 3100 unique IP, which
downloaded FTSBOOK.
Regards,
Oleg
