I have 2 questions for 6.5.1.

1. Currently we couldn't create an index on numeric type.
Is it difficult to add numeric_ops ?

2. I love Oracle TRUNCATE statement.
Marcus Mascari [mascarim(at)yahoo(dot)com] has already implemented
this feature,though I haven't seen his implementation yet.
If his implementation is right,could this new feature be added to
6.5.1 ?

Regards.
