Thanks for the information. If you help us, I pay you a beer in Paris. Dave
Page will probably too in Oxford, so that makes two beers. Dave Page is
working hard on pgAdmin2 writing thousands lines of code. As for myself, I
will concentrate on something comparable to pgAdmin2 in a libgda / GTK+
environment because I think Windows has no future.

CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW / TRIGGER and ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN are real
priorities for us at pgAdmin team (http://pgadmin.postgresql.org). I don't
know PostgreSQL internals, but it should take a few days/weeks to an
experienced hacker to add these features.

So why should I do it myself ? We are a community after all. We are not
working for money but helping each others. If we are bringing pgAdmin to a
large audience, we need more help from hackers on what we consider important :

It should be possible to modify or drop any schema object (with a priority on
views, triggers and columns). This is absolute priority for us. Can anyone
help us? Can we make sure it will be added to 7.3? Thanks in advance.
