Hackers,
I need a constraint that ensures that a text[] column has only unique values --
that is, that there is no overlap of values between rows. I thought this was a

After further consideration, I think the patch I committed here:
http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=31ad6553646c81f3ce8fccf8aef1a1134a7864c7
may have been an overly hasty band-aid rather than a good fix.
The question that needs to be faced is: what should WaitLatchOrS

C.
If you grep through the documentation for things like "RFC" or "ISO",
you will find a nu

In summary, names on release note items potentially have the following
beneficial effects:
* Encouraging new developers/reviewers
* Encouraging long-established developers
* Showing appreciation to developers
* Assisting future employment for developers
* Helping developers get future funding

Do we have a full list of externally defined open standards that we follow?
Are there any known incompatibilities from externally defined open standards?
(I know about the SQL standard stuff).
Are there any things that need standards that don't have them? (Be brief)
Some high level general quest
