Folks,
Hey, I can see a way for /contrib to become a lot better option for
stuff-we're-not-sure-whether-to-include.
What if we could build contrib modules through a build-time switch for
PostgreSQL? Like,
./configure --with-perl --with-dblink --with-newsysviews
This would seem a *lot* more user friendly to me, and easier on the package
builders. What's the technical obstacle to it?
Also, I think that /contrib modules should have documentation included in the
main docs, probably as an appendix.
