Thats right. Do you also agree in that only the instead rules
should be left?

It is in a good, stable state now. I would like to have it
shipped with 6.4, because removing the non-instead rules is a
loss of functionality and at least we must provide another
way. Someone might currently use rules for some extra
actions. But this is subject to trigger procedures. Up to now
there's only C and Tcl available for it. Not anyone likes Tcl
- and writing the triggers in C isn't fun for SQL
programmers.

I'll pack it and send it to you after a last check of the
code.
