Marko, Asko, hackers:

I thought the idea was that we were going to add PL/proxy to 8.5, with
support for the foriegn data wrapper syntax? What happened to that?

Using SQL/MED for defining pl/proxy clusters is still in the TODO list.
I hope to do something about it during the next few weeks. However, I
doubt if adding SQL/MED support would be enough for including it in 8.5
contrib.

Martin

That depends on what features of SQL/MED you are interested in. As you
could read upthread, PL/Proxy support is being worked on. Dblink
supports it in 8.4. The next step might be foreign table support. I
recall that there was a patch proposed for that a couple of commitfests
ago, but that did not go further.
