I know that in pgsql.hackers they are discussing what to market the
upcoming 8.2 release as. They mention updatable views, but
realistically, PostgreSQL has had them via rules forever. I consider
myself a database novice , and even I've created updatable views using
rules quite easily.
It would be really great if PostgreSQL supported SQL:2003 Window
functions. I know that oracle and sql server have them already, so it
would make postgres competitive in that area. I know there is a
feature freeze for 8.2, is it doable for 8.3?
