Re: Warning about the 8.4 release

It seems like it would be helpful if you made a pass through it
yourself just looking for duplicates and commitfest items, since it's
probably just as fast for you to find them and fix them as it is for
us to tell you about them - maybe faster, since the links on this page
don't seem to work very well.

But...

- you have column-level privileges in there four times, it's also in
the commitfest
- updatable views is in the commitfest, and is the same item as WIP:
Automatic view update rules
- WIP: Hash Join-Filter Pruning using Bloom Filters is in the commitfest
- SQL/MED compatible connection manager is in the commitfest and in
fact comitted
- optimizing copy is on the commitfest page (under "optimizing copy
with memchr")
- htup and bufpage API clean up is on the commitfest page
- HeapTuple version extension + code cleanup is on the commitfest page
- Synchronous replication patch v1 and synchronous replication patch
v2 are earlier versions of the patch that is now one of the major
items left to resolve for this commitfest
- updated hash functions for postgresql v1 is in on the commitfest page
- WIP: Page space reservation (pgupgrade) is an idea that was
rejected, IIRC. pg_upgrade project status is more of the same thing.
there are several more pg_upgrade related items on here as well, most
of which are probably unnecessary.
- Infrastructure changes for recovery (v8) is on the commitfest page
- parallel restore is on here several times under various times:
parallel pg_restore - WIP patch, parallel pg_restore, parallel
pg_restore design issues.
