OK, I talked to Marc and he is going to package up beta1 tonight.

Any more changes to HISTORY?

I want to run pgindent in an hour. Does anyone have a problem with
that?

This is missing:

- Implemented START TRANSACTION, per SQL99 (Neil)

This was implemented by Peter, I think:

- Add privileges on functions and procedural languages

This was done by Tom, IIRC:

- Triggers are now fired in alphabetical order

This could probably be better phrased:

- Have PL/PgSQL FOUND return proper value for PERFORM and SELECT INTO
(Tom, Neil)

As (reword as necessary):

- Overhaul the PL/PgSQL FOUND magic variable to be more
Oracle-compatible, and generally more sane. (Tom, Neil)

This was implemented by me and Jukka Holappa:

- Clean up use of sprintf in favor of snprintf()

Tom did some work on this as well as Chris, I believe:

- Add ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN (Christopher)

I didn't see any mention of Tom's recent changes to the on-disk array
storage format, but I might have just missed that.

Cheers,

Neil

IIRC, some of it was originally based on Hiroshi's earlyer trial code,
so he should probably be mentioned as well ?

Yes, absolutely:

Add ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN (Christopher, Hiroshi)

Done. I didn't mention it earlier because I was unsure of its
significance.

- Add privileges on functions and procedural languages

Yep, fixed.

This was done by Tom, IIRC:

- Triggers are now fired in alphabetical order

Yep, Tom.

This could probably be better phrased:

Done.

As (reword as necessary):

- Overhaul the PL/PgSQL FOUND magic variable to be more
Oracle-compatible, and generally more sane. (Tom, Neil)

This was implemented by me and Jukka Holappa:

Added.

Tom did some work on this as well as Chris, I believe:

- Add ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN (Christopher)

Added.

I didn't see any mention of Tom's recent changes to the on-disk array
storage format, but I might have just missed that.

I already see it. I added Tom's name too:

Cleanups in array internal handling (Joe, Tom)

While we're competing for the humble award, you might want to add Tom to
that list...

It would be far simpler to put each of the core teams names on the top
of the history file in big bold letters -- or perhaps a watermark in the
background ;)

Already done, with Hiroshi too:

Add ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN (Christopher, Tom, Hiroshi)

Re: Beta1 schedule

Line 72 of the HISTORY file (the one in 7.3b1 that Marc just packaged) reads:

* Pre-6.3 clients are no longer supported.

Is that supposed to be 7.3? I assume you're referring to the catalog changes,
&c. that make old clients that are dependent on them behave incorrectly.

No, he's referring to the on-the-wire protocol. This means that the psql
program that came with 6.2 will not work with 7.3, but the 7.2 psql will
still (mostly) work.
