2003-06-17	Make FLOAT(p) measure the precision p in bits, not decimal digits, to	Tom Lane
	match the SQL standard. Document FLOAT and FLOAT(p) notations in datatype.sgml. Per recent pghackers discussion.
2003-06-17	More information schema views.	Peter Eisentraut

2003-06-15	Make ecpg thread safe.	Bruce Momjian
	Lee Kindness
2003-06-13	Add --with-threads configure option to control threaded libpq.	Bruce Momjian

2003-06-12	Mention need for swap on Linux, and kill -9.	Bruce Momjian

2003-06-12	Document default Linux autocommit behavior, and show workaround.	Bruce Momjian

2003-06-12	Brief note about sequence cache not being cleared in other backends.	Bruce Momjian
	Actually clear the cache in the backend making the alteration. This follows in the footsteps of setval(). Rod Taylor
2003-06-11	Add add_missing_from GUC variable.	Bruce Momjian
	Nigel J. Andrews
2003-06-11	Add log_min_duration_statement.	Bruce Momjian
	Christopher Kings-Lynne
2003-06-11	pg_dump and pg_restore were stripping quotes and downcasing some but	Tom Lane
	not all SQL identifiers taken from command line arguments. We decided years ago that that was a bad idea: identifiers taken from the command line should be treated as literally correct. Remove the inconsistent code that has crept in recently. Also fix pg_dump so that the combination of --schema and --table does what you'd expect, namely dump exactly one table from exactly one schema. Per gripe from Deepak Bhole of Red Hat.
2003-06-11	Update anonymous-CVS instructions.	Tom Lane

2003-06-11	Now that I look, that link doesn't belong there at all, does it?	Tom Lane

2003-06-11	Fix busted markup.	Tom Lane

2003-06-11	Add Rendezvous support to postmaster, from Chris Campbell	Bruce Momjian

2003-06-07	Remove kerberos mention that doesn't support our software, from Peter.	Bruce Momjian

2003-06-06	Update German FAQ, from Ian Barwick.	Bruce Momjian

2003-06-06	Update FAQ from Ian Barwick.	Bruce Momjian

2003-06-06	Add mention of two auth_mod kerberos projects, from Daniel Kouril	Bruce Momjian

2003-06-06	Remove mention of ALTER USER able to remove passwords.	Bruce Momjian

2003-06-06	Implement outer-level aggregates to conform to the SQL spec, with	Tom Lane
	extensions to support our historical behavior. An aggregate belongs to the closest query level of any of the variables in its argument, or the current query level if there are no variables (e.g., COUNT(*)). The implementation involves adding an agglevelsup field to Aggref, and treating outer aggregates like outer variables at planning time.
2003-06-06	Update documentation build instructions.	Peter Eisentraut

2003-06-05	Information schema views about functions	Peter Eisentraut

2003-06-02	Add Turkish FAQ, from Devrim GUNDUZ.	Bruce Momjian

2003-06-02	Update Russian FAQ, from Viktor Vislobokov	Bruce Momjian

2003-06-02	Update Emacs settings, from Andrew Dunstan	Bruce Momjian

2003-05-31	Add item about sending success stories to http://advocacy.postgresql.org.	Bruce Momjian

2003-05-30	Cause pg_dumpall to support the -a, -s, -x options of pg_dump.	Tom Lane

2003-05-29	Adopt latest bison's spelling of 'syntax error' rather than 'parse error'	Tom Lane
	for grammar-detected problems. Revert Makefile hack that kept it looking like the pre-bison-1.875 output.
2003-05-28	Replace functional-index facility with expressional indexes. Any column	Tom Lane
	of an index can now be a computed expression instead of a simple variable. Restrictions on expressions are the same as for predicates (only immutable functions, no sub-selects). This fixes problems recently introduced with inlining SQL functions, because the inlining transformation is applied to both expression trees so the planner can still match them up. Along the way, improve efficiency of handling index predicates (both predicates and index expressions are now cached by the relcache) and fix 7.3 oversight that didn't record dependencies of predicate expressions.
2003-05-28	Add info about selecting a random row.	Bruce Momjian

2003-05-27	Make debug_ GUC varables output DEBUG1 rather than LOG, and mention in	Bruce Momjian
	docs that CLIENT/LOG_MIN_MESSAGES now controls debug_* output location. Doc changes included.
2003-05-26	Add item for changing a column's data type.	Bruce Momjian

2003-05-26	Fix misstatement in release-notes item.	Tom Lane

2003-05-26	Add documentation to 'createuser' that ALTER USER must be used to add or	Bruce Momjian
	modify passwords, per user confusion report. Also clean up wording that command line utils need database access.
2003-05-26	Cause CHAR(n) to TEXT or VARCHAR conversion to automatically strip trailing	Tom Lane
	blanks, in hopes of reducing the surprise factor for newbies. Remove redundant operators for VARCHAR (it depends wholly on TEXT operations now). Clean up resolution of ambiguous operators/functions to avoid surprising choices for domains: domains are treated as equivalent to their base types and binary-coercibility is no longer considered a preference item when choosing among multiple operators/functions. IsBinaryCoercible now correctly reflects the notion that you need only relabel the type to get from type A to type B: that is, a domain is binary-coercible to its base type, but not vice versa. Various marginal cleanup, including merging the essentially duplicate resolution code in parse_func.c and parse_oper.c. Improve opr_sanity regression test to understand about binary compatibility (using pg_cast), and fix a couple of small errors in the catalogs revealed thereby. Restructure "special operator" handling to fetch operators via index opclasses rather than hardwiring assumptions about names (cleans up the pattern_ops stuff a little).
2003-05-25	Information schema improvements	Peter Eisentraut

2003-05-23	Place statement_timeout in proper order in docs, from Bruno Wolff III.	Bruce Momjian

2003-05-22	Update release history for impending 7.3.3 release.	Tom Lane

2003-05-19	Add error message style guidelines to the SGML documentation.	Tom Lane

2003-05-18	Add documentation for information schema, and some corrections on some	Peter Eisentraut
	views.
2003-05-15	Indexing support for pattern matching operations via separate operator	Peter Eisentraut
	class when lc_collate is not C.
2003-05-14	Backend support for autocommit removed, per recent discussions. The	Tom Lane
	only remnant of this failed experiment is that the server will take SET AUTOCOMMIT TO ON. Still TODO: provide some client-side autocommit logic in libpq.
2003-05-09	Implement array_send/array_recv (binary I/O for arrays). This exposed	Tom Lane
	the folly of not passing element type to typsend/typreceive, so fix that.
2003-05-09	COPY BINARY uses the new binary I/O routines. Update a few more datatypes	Tom Lane
	so that COPY BINARY regression test passes.
2003-05-08	Reinstate pg_type's typsend and typreceive columns. They don't do much	Tom Lane
	yet, but they're there. Also some editorial work on CREATE TYPE reference page.
2003-05-08	Fix documentation problem pointed out by Barry Lind: code expected a	Tom Lane
	terminating zero byte in StartupMessage, docs didn't mention it.
2003-05-07	Update COPY BINARY file format spec to reflect recent decisions about	Tom Lane
	external representation of binary data.
2003-05-07	Revise protocol doc for recently-agreed modifications. This is the	Tom Lane
	first version of the 3.0 protocol that can be considered non-draft.
2003-05-07	Fix erroneous example, per Tim Knowles.	Tom Lane
