Marc, do you have a release date set? I remember July 15. I know
Thomas has to regenerate the INSTALL and HISTORY files.

I am glad you did not split the CVS tree. Tom Lane and I are both
sitting on patches, but it is easier to sit on patches than to
double-patch.

Let's say July 19th, which is a Monday, we do the 6.5.1 release *and* CVS
split? I like Monday releases, since it means most ppl are around for a
few days afterwards "just in case" :)

Sounds good. Tom Lane is breathing on that CVS tree. I don't know if I
can hold him back until then. :-)

Should we do the split now? Tom?

Re: [HACKERS] 6.5.1 release date

I can't do cvs update for about 2 days:

all I get is repeated message:

cvs server: [03:16:34] waiting for anoncvs's lock in /usr/local/cvsroot/pgsql/src/include/rewrite

Regards,

Oleg

I'd be inclined to say the split should happen a few days before the
release ... but I'm not the one doing the work ;-). Release on the
19th sounds fine to me, but I think we could do the split anytime now.

Agreed. I think we are pretty much done addressing user problems from
6.5.
