So, to the question “do we want hard deadlines?” I think the answer is
“no”, to “do we need hard deadlines?”, my answer is still “no”, and to

answer is yes.
Because it really changes the game for PostgreSQL users.
Much as I hate to say it (I too want to keep our schedule as
predictable and organised as possible), I have to agree. Assuming the
patch is good, I think this is something we should push into 9.1. It
really could be a game changer.
I'm not a fan of hard and fast deadlines for releases - it puts too much
pressure on us to release before we might be ready. But I'm also not a
fan of totally abandoning our established processes, which accepting
this would. I don't mind bending the rules a bit occasionally; I do mind
throwing them out the door.
