Sorry I have forgotten to attach the implementaion of
nls_sort function.

I kindly ask people who concern about support multiple
locale per column to verify this implementation and
fix it to be suitable for contribuation.

Best Regards
M. Taghizade

Re: again: add collation support function

Why you didn't reply this messages.

I was searching for this one several hours, thanks for M.Taghizadeh. I
think, if it place in contribution section of postgresql, it will avoid
wasting several hours for peoples like me that wants this one.
Does it have a bad implementaion?
Sorry I think it is a very bad manner for postgresql master developers to
leave such this message without any reply.
I will appreciate if you reply this one.

Best Regards.

It was only posted seven days ago and will not appear until 8.1 so
people will have to keep looking for many more months no matter how
quickly we add it.

It still does not answer his question, being if this is the way core
will want to go?

I've been waiting to see other comments on it. I think this is
certainly not the long-term solution, but if enough people think
it is useful as a short-term hack then maybe it should go into contrib.

(I suspec Marc's vote will be "put it in pgfoundry" in any case...)

I'm fine with putting it into contrib. (I haven't looked at the code, just in
concept.)

Re: again: add collation support function

I think we have decided that use of the ICU library is the tool we are
going to use to implement muliple locales.
