Dear Developers,
when do you plan to announce the final version of 8.0.0? As far as I can
remember it was promised by 15. dec.
No hurrying, just would like to know. I should install it on the site and
thougt I wait for the final version.

My guess is 2-3 weeks from now.

Hi,
as far as I can remember I somewhere read an article - maybe somwhere on a
dbforum or the postgresql.org - which stated that after the RC1 the final
version is required to be announced at around 15. dec. May be I'm
misinformed.

Bye,

I definitely remember it being *estimated* for the 15th, but I don't
recall anything being promised at all.

You're misinformed. Nothing of the sort is "required to be
announced."

If everything had gone _perfectly_ well with the first release
candidate, a release might have gone out. In view of there being some
issues found on some platforms leading to a fair number of bug fixes,
the final release won't be a result of RC1. It might be the result of
RC2, in another couple or three weeks, but that again assumes that it
is ready after testing RC2, which leaves a dose of uncertainty.

You must be right and I must remeber wrong. Sorry.
Despite of this I'm very happy with the new estimated deadline. :)
