Hmmm.  I wonder what would be the reaction if you showed your "higher ups"
the list of bug-fixes between your release and 7.0.  It is a *very long*
list.

I loathe unplanned/forced upgrades, especially when due to reliability
problems.  I was put in that position with pg 6.5.2 problems.  But I have
been quite pleased with 7.0 so far.
