RE: why no stored procedures?

Creating a C function to replace each stored proc is hardly a good solution.
Or is it? Unfortunately my C skills are rusty at best.

I'm glad to hear that the postgresql developers are attempting to add the
ability to return result sets. Does anyone have any idea how that is coming
along? Also are they planning on creating stored procs at all to return
more than one parameter?
