ETA for PostgreSQL 7.3.3?

Hi guys,

Feels like we've been isolating a whole bunch of bugs in 7.3.2 recently,
some of which are causing crashes out in the real world.

Wondering when we feel it'd be good to start assembling a 7.3.3? I'm
thinking in about two weeks or so, to give a bit more time to catch bugs
and stuff.

Any thoughts/suggestions?

Regards and best wishes,

Justin Clift

I really should fix this rowtype problem for 7.3.3 - here's hoping I find
some time...

Agreed. I wish "time" could be purchased in bottles. Reckon we could
all get together and put in wholesale orders!

I think it'll be too large and risky a change to put into 7.3.* in any
case. Maybe you'll find some brilliant, obviously-correct solution ---
but I'm betting that it will require messiness in a number of places.
