-----------------------------------
Hi Jason,
Thanks for your response. I understand it's hard to separate your patch into
small patches. On the other hand, I'm wondering if the changes you made dealing
with precision/scale is required for char/varchar support. If not, could you
spare them from you patch?
The problem I have is the difficulty to rebase my changes on your patch because
of the progressive nature. This might makes easier for both of us to proceed.
In the meantime, please feel free to include whatever changes that are needed
for both feature.
Please let me know. Thanks.
