The main stall at this point is that the developer who wrote that patch no longer spends much time working on Postgres. AFAICS there is nobody working on this for 9.3 mainly because its not a priority, nor will implementing that fix the OP's request. There is no paralysis because there never was a blocker, only a request for backwards compatibility, which is easily possible to implement. -- Simon Riggs http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
