This one I do not agree with. We don't have to explain it beyond a
single sentence, people can do their own research on if they need it.
This is PR :). Full Disjunctions falls directly into the Most Advanced
Open Source Database arena (and considering Ingres is open source we
have to fight for this).

Frankly there are several projects on pgFoundry that need some advocacy
on this release including:

Full Disjunctions
.Npgsql (if it hits 1.0)
Orafce

Possibly some reiteration around:

pljava
pgpool

These are all items that greatly enhance the usability and functionality
argument.

I thought bitmapped indexes had been reviewed? eek...
