If someone writes the rest of the code, I doubt the syntax will be the holdup. But writing an efficient C-store table mechanism is much harder than I think you think it is; Vertica worked on it for a year and failed, and Paraccel took two years to succeed. FYI, Paraccel is based on Postgres. So, put up a pgfoundry project and start hacking a c-store table; I'm sure you;ll get interest if you can make something work. -- --Josh Josh Berkus PostgreSQL @ Sun San Francisco ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
