O.k. maybe it is time to consider something non-traditional. What about
two 8.4 releases?
8.4-stable
8.4-experimental
stable is everything that stable is. PostgreSQL at its best.
experimental is the day after we branch. Same catalog version but
contains say SEPostgres and Hot Standby etc...
8.4-experimental gives people a stable same version compatible version
to test at their leisure. We support it until 8.5 comes out. At 8.5,
those features are merged (or ripped out) into 8.5-stable.
Yes I know this is non-standard for our community but maybe it is time
to crank it up a notch?
Sincerely,
Joshua D. Drake
