Hi Joe !

Now when the 7.3 release is out,can we get back to plpq ?
I did send You sources before vacation, and You said that You will take a
look.
I hope I am not disturbing You. If You think that this is bad Idea, I give up
hope that we merge this functions into dblink, an I will do it manually for
my projects as I did before(I must say that this is a frustration for me
because I must tweak the code with every new release of postgres).
I am not using new plpq functions jet, so even if You do not want to merge,
maybe You can give me some comments(as I said before, I do not understand
memory management and memory contests to well) ?
Thank You in advance.

Regards !
