PG 9.1 tentative timeline

Started by Pr, Solaiyappan (NSN - IN/Bangalore)over 15 years ago9 messages

Hi,

I understand this is very early to ask this.. but, is there any tentative timeline has been planned / available for the PostgreSQL 9.1 release, like for the alpha or beta releases before the general release?
Also, is there any synchronous replication patch planned for the PostgreSQL 9.0 version?

Regards,
Solai

The tentative timeline is "more-or-less the same as 9.0 went". That is
to say, we're hopeful to start a commitfest July 15th, finish by Auguet
15th, cut alpha1, then switch to GIT for the main repo, and start the
next commitfets September 15th.

All that said, this was the discussion at PGCon a few weeks ago on the
assumption we were going to get 9.0 out sometime in the July timeframe..
I'm slightly less optomistic about that at this particular time. :)

Also, is there any synchronous replication patch planned for the PostgreSQL 9.0 version?

No. Sync-Rep didn't make it in for 9.0 and we're way, way, wayyyy past
feature freeze on that. The hope/plan is to get it included in 9.1
(released "summer 2011", hopefully :).

Thanks,

Stephen

Cybertec announced new version of Cybercluster, which includes sync
replication -- I haven't tested it though.

that one is basically 9.0beta + the sync rep patch posted on the list -
not something you would want to use in production...

Thanks! Looks good, except I thought our plan was to cut alpha1
before the git switch. Or maybe it doesn't matter? Not sure.

Yes, I thought so too. The page lists those events in the right order,
but now I see the associated dates don't agree.

Yeah, I just wrote down the facts. If the facts don't make sense, we
need to discuss changes.

I think it would make most sense to moved the Git switch to, say, August
21, which btw. is a Saturday.
