We are going to upgrade our Postgres servers (most 8.2.9 and some 8.2.4) to the 8.3.x version.

From the postgres web site, I can see the 8.3.5 is the latest version. 

Question for people who have been on 8.3.5:

Is 8.3.5 very safe to use (no major new bugs)? Is it really better than the older versions of  the 8.3.X families?

Thanks a lot,
Jessica

 

Yes, we've been using it for a few months, and it's fine.  You *ALWAYS* want to be using the latest

version within the series.  The PostgreSQL project releases those to fix bugs.
