Oooh. Based on emails I've received I should point out that phpPgAdmin is a FREE, VOLUNTEER project! It's not a paid job offer! Christopher Kings-Lynne wrote: Hi, The phpPgAdmin project has been pretty quiet for some time now. We have decided to try to build up our developer base again by

[HACKERS] Triage Coverity

I spent some time today going through the stuff on the Coverity website. I basically looked at every report outside of src/backend (due to the ereport false-positives (elog is fixed)) and src/interfaces/ecpg (due to the shear volume of probably bugs). I've sorted them into: FALSE - Not a bug, Cov
