The core committee has agreed that it's about time to put out new
dot-releases in both the 7.3 and 7.4 branches. (The main thing forcing
this is the realization that permissions checks on view updates were
pretty badly broken by the now-reverted patch of 13-Feb-03 --- this
could be labeled a security issue.)

We have not chosen an exact date yet, but we are thinking of 7.3.6 late
this week or early next week, and 7.4.2 a week later.

So, if you've got any fixes you wanted to get into those branches,
time to get on it. I know that I discouraged a couple of people from
back-patching into 7.3.* on the grounds that "there probably won't be
another 7.3 release" ... well, I was wrong, so do it if you want.

regards, tom lane
