I do not agree with that note, either. I believe that trying to tell people what things specifically they should do or avoid doing with the tool is the wrong approach. Instead, the thrust of the message should be to tell people that if you use this, it may corrupt your database, and that's your problem. The difficulty with telling people what specifically they ought to avoid doing is that experts will be annoyed to be told that something is not safe when they know that it is fine, and non-experts will think that some uses are safer than they really are. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company
