I think this is an ad hominum attack. I have explained some factors that are relevant from my point of view, and that explain some of the behavior you don't like. I have already said several times that the implementation might not be up to the mark, and I apologize for that. If you want to interpret the current state of affairs as being 0% attributable to a difference of opinion between reasonable people about what the behavior ought to be, and 100% due to laziness or cowardliness on my part and the part of the other people involved in these patches, I cannot prevent you from doing so. However, I think that judgement is inaccurate. More importantly, I think it's a nasty sentiment which is inappropriate on this mailing list or in any other civilized discourse. If you think that the code is bad, you can say that without commenting on my character. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company
