I currently have a 7.3 installation for which I have my own patches applied, for tsearch2, and for which I run my own CVS of the cpntrob module. It seems this module isn't maintained in the community, what with it being a 7.4 thing really. My company is the sys. admin., DBA and DB developer for the project, except for the production server sys. admin.. These mods weren't applied because the client was asking for them but because I knew the faults existed, even though the project wasn't kicking them. If the patches you wrote are your own, to fix a problem, and not reviewed by the OSS community and incorporated into an OSS project/code base, then it would be your own proprietary modification to an OSS codebase, and thus, if not commonly accepted, becomes yours to own and sell to clients, etc Then, it's not default Postgresql from the OSS stream. Does that mean I have supplied Logictree Systems PostgreSQL? PostgreSQL with Logictree Systems TSearch2? And if I'd made no modifications to the code? I suppose I could have insisted that a separate contract be taken for the supply and support on top of the app. development contract. In fact, having written that I'm starting to think that should be the case. The thing to remember about the above, is that if your solution eventually gets that OSS community approval or review, and accepted into an open codebase and thus incorporated into a project, with everyone's agreement, and thus becomes standard for distribution, your code is no longer proprietary as it was accepted as the open default solution to a problem or whatever in an open code base. If the latter never occurs, then I'd say, yes, you *could[read: should?]* sell support for your modifications and call them your own and, depending on the license used, disclose not only the changed, but the source code to those receiving support from you for said changes. That is, if you're at all serious about them and providing support too. -- Austin Gonyou [EMAIL PROTECTED] Coremetrics, Inc. ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

On Sun, 23 Nov 2003, Oleg Bartunov wrote: does tsearch2 in 7.4 still has the problem ? I apologies if we miss your patches but certainly we're interested in clear explanation of the problem. The problem was memory allocations made through malloc and family were not being checked for failure before attempts made to use the memory, i.e. null pointer dereference. Tom or Bruce applied the patch in time for 7.4 release. The only issue with this was noone knew how the version of tsearch2 for PostgeSQL 7.3 was being maintained. I think I posted the patch for that to at least one of the lists but as I am using tsearch2 on 7.3 I also threw this into my own CVS. In short, I don't think there's anything to worry about in relation to my patches and 7.4. Just to remind you though, the original fault reporter reported he was still getting the fault after applying what I assume was my patches. Which surprised me as I expected the fault location to be moved somewhere else. I think the real problem he was having was that of memory exhaustion but we never got more than basic information for this last report.

Hopefully some good will come of it none-the-less, like others who come after me might see the reasons our db application developers want this type of go to support. No need to apologize Austin. Let me answer your post also, even though I'm posting late. We do provide binary support for PostgreSQL and any other open source product we support even though we don't push it in advertising. When all is said and done we're only distributing patched binaries and following the changes to the code base. The trick in providing binary support is that under our current business model (cheap, standardized hourly rate), the customer needs to understand that they are paying us for our time to apply patches, do code reviews, coding etc ... it's not like a product you get from Oracle where the cost of maintenance is amortized over all the customers. The benefit to this approach, however is that our customers get exactly the changes they want - they actually drive features development by having us improve the base product for their specific needs.

If by up to date you mean 7.4, your probably going to have to wait, but
I believe that Command Prompt, dbExperts, Red Hat, and SRA all have some

Hello Tell me if I am significantly wrong but Command Prompt PostgreSQL is nothing more than Open Source PostgreSQL including some application server stuff, some propriertary PL/Perl || PL/PHP and not much more. Ahh no. First our PL/Perl and PL/PHP is not propiertary in any way. It is open source, you are free to download it and use it at your leisure. Second we have better SSL support (although this is fixed in the current cvs for 7.3 series) Third we have compression over the connection stream for more efficient connectivity over congested networks. Also: Included graphical management tools (also now open source, pgManage) Modified shared memory management for better performance A policy of a minimum of 2005 before we won't support PostgreSQL. 24 hour / 7 day support with a history of performance for the customer. Oh... and: Native, built in as part of the database replication. Can you tell me a reason why somebody should use a closed source version of an Open Source product unless it contains some really significant improvement (say native Win32 or something like that)?
