Done:1.4) What do I do after choosing an item to work on?Send an email to pgsql-hackers with a proposal for what you
wantto do(assuming your contribution is not trivial). Working in isolation is notadvisable: others may be working on
thesame TODO item; you may havemisunderstood the TODO item; your approach may benefit from the reviewof others.A web
siteis maintained for patches that are ready to be applied,http://momjian.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/pgpatches, and those
thatarebeing kept for the next release,http://momjian.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/pgpatches2.
