I will be taking a long (and long-overdue) vacation from Sep 10 to Oct 20.
I expect to have email access, but won't be doing much more than minimally
keeping up with my inbox.

This means I'll be pretty much AWOL for the September commitfest :-(.
That's unfortunate, but the dates for this trip were frozen long before
the 9.4 development calendar was.

Enjoy and have a good rest! It is really nice that you inform the
hackers about that.

I think a scene from Ghostbusters comes in handy here...

Dr. Peter Venkman: This city is headed for a disaster of biblical proportions.
Mayor: What do you mean, "biblical"?
Dr Ray Stantz: What he means is Old Testament, Mr. Mayor, real wrath
of God type stuff.
Dr. Peter Venkman: Exactly.
Dr Ray Stantz: Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies! Rivers
and seas boiling!
Dr. Egon Spengler: Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes...
Winston Zeddemore: The dead rising from the grave!
Dr. Peter Venkman: Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together...
mass hysteria!
Mayor: All right, all right! I get the point!

Man, dogs and cats living together!!!

[I wonder what skewing this will have on the analytical statistics on
the pgsql mailing lists???

Indeed. We'll try to keep the dogs and cats suitably apart! :-)
