        Hello all,

        Currently PostgreSQL doesn't support data change delta tables. For 
example, it doesn't support this type of query:

        SELECT * FROM NEW TABLE (
             INSERT INTO phone_book
             VALUES ( 'Peter Doe', '555-2323' )
        ) AS t

        PostgreSQL has RETURNING that provides only a subset of this 
functionality.

        So I suggest to add support for data change delta tables. Because this 
feature is more powerful and it is included
        in the SQL Standard.


    This is the wrong mailing list - probably you should send your proposal to 
pgsql-hackers.

    I sent message to pgsql-hackers 
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/b85900eb-9e3c-e358-aa8f-5a27b30c17e7%40gmail.com
 
<https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/b85900eb-9e3c-e358-aa8f-5a27b30c17e7%40gmail.com>
    but got no answer. I decided that my message was ignored because I used 
wrong mailing list.

    The community development is based on patches. If you propose some feature, 
 usually you should implement it. Probably nobody will implement it instand you.

    I am Java developer - I wish, but I can't


I am sorry, but you cannot expect, so somebody will accept your proposal extra 
seriously. Proposing some feature is a simple thing, but implementing some not 
trivial feature requires hundreds of hours of development.


To tell the truth I find it rather strange. I know that there is a big 
difference between proposing some feature and implementing it. But all projects 
I came across with work this way -
you as a user come and propose a feature. The developers of the project 
consider your issue and either accept it to implement or decline it.

You can check the work on features for Postgres https://commitfest.postgresql.org/ 
<https://commitfest.postgresql.org/> and I don't think so there is a lot of 
free capacity for implementing some new features partially redundant to already 
supported features.
