This appears to be the only obvious unresolved issue regarding this patch: https://commitfest.postgresql.org/action/patch_view?id=412 I don't have a strong personal position on whether or not we should do this, but it strikes me that Tom hasn't given much justification for why he thinks we should do this, what benefit we'd get from it, or what the design should look like. So I guess the question is whether Tom - or anyone - would like to make a case for a more serious protocol overhaul, or whether we should just go with the approach proposed here. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
