WITH/WITH RECURSIVE implementation discussion
Hi folks,
Looking ahead at some of the projects I'll be working on in the future, I'm
seeing that having an implementation of WITH/WITH RECURSIVE for working with
tree structures is going to be a very useful feature and so would like to
re-start the discussions on this to see whether this could be achieved for
PG 8.2.
The latest discussion I found related to this appears to be here:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2005-11/msg00564.php which
indicates that Jonah is hoping to work on this for 8.2, but I don't see this
item as being worked on in the TODO list - does that mean that development
on this has halted?
Kind regards,
Mark.

No, in between all my other work here at EnterpriseDB, I'm still
working on it. I hope to get it submitted to -patches for review in
the next two weeks.

Hi Jonah,
That's great news. While I wouldn't say that I have intimate knowledge of
the PostgreSQL internals, I'd be happy to try and help you with this if time
is proving to be a problem.
Kind regards,
Mark.

Time is certainly an issue. After I post the patches, your assistance
would be really helpful in making any changes the community sees
necessary.
