Well, there was a big discussion, and I did bring up the issue in early August to see if I could get a resolution to it and was told no conclusion could be made. I suggest you read the TODO detail on the item and make a proposal on how it _should_ work and if you can get agreement from everyone, you may be able to nag someone into doing a patch. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
