Could I request we change these dates slightly to PostgreSQL 8.1 February 2011 PostgreSQL 8.2 February 2012 with absolutely no intention to extend the support window any worthwhile amount. That way we have * A regular pattern of de-release, so everybody is clearer, i.e. PostgreSQL 8.1 February 2011 PostgreSQL 8.2 February 2012 PostgreSQL 8.3 February 2013 * We don't have de-support right at Thanksgiving or Christmas, since people may do panic-stricken upgrades. I much prefer February as a time for panic, if that choice is available, which I realise it may not be. -- Simon Riggs www.2ndQuadrant.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
