Hi.
In the course of porting a database from Microsoft SQL Server to
PostgreSQL I have rewritten a few of the date and string functions in
pl/pgSQL. Started with just datepart, datediff and soundex, but once
started I continued and rewrote all date/time and string functions
supported by MS SQL 2005. Leaving only compatibility with
unicode-handling and binary objects (that MS SQL Server for some reason
overloads string functions to work with).
I guess I am not the only one moving from MS SQL Server, so is there
interest for others to use my work, as a contrib perhaps. And how should
I continue from here in that case?
regards
