I'm fine with changing the default for the time being. I'm not really sure what I think about changing it back before release. Maybe six months from now it will be clearer what the right thing to do is; or maybe other people will be more certain of what The Right Thing To Do is than I am myself; but there's no rush to finalize a decision right this minute. -- Robert Haas EDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com
