The "partitions" are just tables, so no need for other management

Oracle treats the partitions as sub-tables, so you need a range of
commands
to add, swap etc the partitions of the main table.
I guess a set of tools that emulates that functionality would be
generically
a good thing, if you can see a way to do that.
Oracle partitions were restricted in only allowing a single load
statement
into a single partition at any time, whereas multiple COPY statements
can
access a single partition table on PostgreSQL.
How does this compare to DB2 partitioning?

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
