2006-10-18Fix up timetz input so that a date is required only when the specifiedTom Lane
timezone actually has a daylight-savings rule. This avoids breaking cases that used to work because they went through the DecodePosixTimezone code path. Per contrib regression failures (mea culpa for not running those yesterday...). Also document the already-applied change to allow GMT offsets up to 14 hours.
2006-10-18Fix array operator refererence in release notes, per David Wheeler.Bruce Momjian
2006-10-17Fix up some problems in handling of zic-style time zone names in datetimeTom Lane
input routines. Remove the former "DecodePosixTimezone" function in favor of letting the zic code handle POSIX-style zone specs (see tzparse()). In particular this means that "PST+3" now means the same as "-03", whereas it used to mean "-11" --- the zone abbreviation is effectively just a noise word in this syntax. Make sure that all named and POSIX-style zone names will be parsed as a single token. Fix long-standing bogosities in printing and input of fractional-hour timezone offsets (since the tzparse() code will accept these, we'd better make 'em work). Also correct an error in the original coding of the zic-zone-name patch: in "timestamp without time zone" input, zone names are supposed to be allowed but ignored, but the coding was such that the zone changed the interpretation anyway.
2006-10-17Mark 8.2 release as 2006-??, not 2005-??, per observation by DavidBruce Momjian
Wheeler.

2006-10-16Arrange for timezone names to be recognized case-insensitively; forTom Lane
example SET TIME ZONE 'america/new_york' works now. This seems a good idea on general user-friendliness grounds, and is part of the solution to the timestamp-input parsing problems I noted recently.

2006-10-14FAQ updates --- This is a small cosmetic patch that adds pt_BR IRCBruce Momjian
channel to the lists of IRC channels, fixes a typo in the OID's question, and corrects the PGCluster's project name. Euler Taveira de Oliveira
2006-10-14Code review for --no-data-for-failed-tables patch. Instead of trashingTom Lane
one of the program's core data structures, make use of the existing ability to selectively exclude TOC items by ID. Slightly more code but much less likely to create future maintenance problems.
