Data Type...
I would like to know if postgresql contains the varbinary type, and if the
record length is still limited to 8kB.
What are the plans to change it ? Postgresql 7.0 or 8.0 ?
Cheers..

Frank,
I don't know about varbinary. The 8k limit is expected to disappear in
version 7.1. The strategy to do this is known as TOAST. You might search the
archives for more details if you want them.
