Probably means one more minor release, and that's it. -- Heikki Linnakangas EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers(a)postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

A month is a lot of time :-) There is no "actual date" as yet. Whenever the next set of minor releases come out will be the last one for 7.4 and 8.0. We'll keep back-patching those branches as appropriate up till then. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers(a)postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

People need an exact date so they can discuss in their organisations the consequences of not upgrading. Without a date, those discussions become more complicated because it sounds like our intentions are unclear and may be subject to change. -- Simon Riggs www.2ndQuadrant.com PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training and Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers(a)postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
