We have documented current GiST interface but in russian.

We have no time to translate it to english :-)
I'd appreciate if somebody could help us in documentation -

Sure do I, do I? Hmmm, I can't even tell
anoncvs, the lock cleared in the last hour. It didn't actually do any
waiting, it aborted almost immediately.

I have a few questions about what would be expected from coercing to a
type with constraints (Domains mostly -- but complex object types may
run into similar issues if implemented).
What I intend to do:

OK, I have finally decided that our archive searching stinks. I have
emails in my mailbox that don't appear in the archives.
Our main site, http://archives.postgresql.org/ doesn't archive the
'patches' list. (It isn't listed on the main site, and I can't find
postings via searching.) Also, why

It could be helpful to create a mailing list just for this project,
since not all members of pg-hackers will/shall participate, and we
would probably flood this list quite a bit trying to figure out what

I don't see the problem here. Is that CVS or anonCVS? Can you show us
the 'waiting' lines above this that show the lock location?

mean in this case?

I've got patches for the CREATE CAST/DROP CAST feature (just a
rearrangement of our existing function declaration syntax). The SQL99
form assumes that an existing function will be used for the cast
definition, so I've extended the syntax to allow that and to have an
alternate form which has more o
