think you will have a patch submitted before feature freeze. Be
realistic, if you can't make it -- say so.

Gavin Sherry: Bitmap Indexes (on disk), possible basic Window functions
Greg Stark: WITH/Recursive Queries?
Andrei Kovalesvki: Some Win32 work with Magnus
Magnus Hagander: VC++ support (thank goodness)
Heikki Linnakangas: Vacuum for Bitmap Indexes, Group Index Tuples
Oleg Bartunov: Tsearch2 in core
Neil Conway: Patch Review (including enums), pg_fcache
PeterE: XML
ITAGAKI Takahiro: Dead space map, load distributed checkpoints
Stephen Frost: Default permission per object/schema
Tom Lane: Cost based functions, operator overhaul, Plan Invalidation?
Simon Riggs: HOT ( you know he just is )
Pavan Deolasee: HOT ( never met him )
Teodor Sigaev: Tsearch2 in core (with Oleg)
Jeff Davis: Synchronized scanning
Henry Hotz: GSSAPI (with Magnus)
Andrew Dunstan: Something with COPY? Andrew?
David Fetter: Arrays of compound types

Looking for updates on Updateable views. Anyone? Bueller?

Vertical projects:

This close to feature freeze it is really time for people to get
pounding on patch review!!!

The only thing I can think of is to remove the support for ancient COPY
syntax from psql's \copy, as suggested here:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql...2/msg01078.php

That's hardly a feature - more a matter of tidying up.

Uhm, I posted two weeks ago saying I had to shelve that temporarily.

On the other hand I've submitted a patch to reduce the storage overhead of
varlenas under 128 bytes by 3-7 bytes each.

I can't read every email

Can someone pick this up? This would be the second time that this has
been dropped. Anyone?

I am still on target. I'm scheduling some benchmarks on real hardware
and real queries in the next week or two. If those show the results I
expect, I'll be ready before feature freeze.

Send me a patch against 8.2.3 and I'll pass it to the Sun benchmarking
team.

Also, I have several heavy patches in the patch queue that I am not
comfortable reviewing/applying:

Afaik Bernd is working in this one and he is targetting 8.4

Looks like we are doing redundant work here:
http://developer.postgresql.org/inde...:WishlistFor83

Where/how do you maintained your todo list Joshua? Would love to join
"forces" on this one .. especially since I send out emails to many of
the above noted people. If we both send emails to everybody they might
get ticked off ..

regards,
Lukas
