Re: [HACKERS] My review for the patch Table command

2008-11-06 Thread Josh Berkus 

Unicron,

   4. Since it is just an alternative to select * from Table,  I think 
this feature is

   unneccessary.


Heh.  I agree, but tell that to the SQL committee.

I don't think we need to argue out the merits of adding standard syntax.

This patch is Ready for Code Review.

We can, however, argue the merits of making extensive documentation
changes to document such a useless feature.
