Exiting pgfoundry projects are perfectly safe for now - but *new* projects are not accepted. There is a project underway (for a *long* time - it keeps getting stalled) working on migration paths. Until such paths are available and documented, existing projects will still be safe on pgfoundry. -- Magnus Hagander Me: http://www.hagander.net/ Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/ -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
