I have been working extensively with the bit string data type. I have a number of useful c-language functions to set/clear a bit, count number of bits set, inquire if a bit is set/clear, etc. I don't see functions like these as part of any SQL standard, (although I think they ought to be).
I would like to make these a part of postgresql for others to use. Is it more appropriate for these to be in contrib code or part of the postgresql proper? How can I contribute these?
