I wanted to push to see if I made a version of this patch against CVS
head if we could see it included in 8.3.

It's of clear value for people who use pg_dump and tablespaces. HOT
and tsearch development still continues and implementations of each
feature are still being discussed/debated as of this morning. It
seems to me that 8.3 code base is not static and we're not at the bug
cleanup phase of nearing release.

This patch is minor and makes admin, backup and recovery much easier
for people who use the tablespace feature and elect not to use
pg_dumpall. I think waiting for 8.4 at this point is a bit silly,
given the scope of code and impact of the patch.

You already got an answer to this question, and you replied:

http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql...7/msg00167.php

If you want it in 8.3 you are going to need some community members to
take ownership of the patch, take responsibility for it, testing it, etc,
and argue that a feature addition that arrived in July should be added.
Not impossible, but you are going to need advocates for this.

At this stage we should be kicking things out of the list, not adding to
it, IMNSHO. It really doesn't look to me like HOT is ready, from what I
can see of the discussion, and desirable as it is I think it should
probably wait.

Just my USD0.02 worth.

Are you saying HOT should wait or --no-tablespaces?

--no-tablespaces definitely, HOT too unless there is a short clear path
to committal (which seems unlikely given the tenor of the discussions).

Agreed.

You can't expect something like HOT to hit the mark 100% on its first
review. If we expected 100%, nothing complex would get applied. We
have a few weeks for HOT to mature now that it has feedback from Tom.

We are on versoin 14 that they generated with Heikki's feedback and
others, but no Tom's.
