Hello, list. I'm setting up a pgpool-II cluster (made an ebuild, available at http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=196300) of postgresql servers, and when I looked for the available versions on portage, I was kinda astonished to see version 8.0.13 marked as stable, and both 8.1.9 and 8.2.4 marked as unstable. The 8.0 tree is from 2004, 8.1 tree from 2005, and 8.2 was first released on 2006, almost one year ago. I exchanged a few emails with a postgresql developer, and he told me that I should go with the 8.2 tree. The developer stated clearly that there is no reason to stick to 8.0, and the benefits of 8.2 (improvements, bugfixes, etc) were way too many. So, I was asking myself how is the process of making one package going from unstable to stable on Gentoo. In fact, when I told him my distro's stable version was 8.0.13, he asked if I was running Debian :)
