This *is* for the community, Bruce. There was extensive discussion of my original proposal back in January:
http://www.mail-archive.com/pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org/msg143645.html
I welcome all contributions from the community. I want it to be a success for PostgreSQL. But note that it doesn't have
tobe started as a -hackers project (any more than pg_upgrade did). CPAN, for example, was created because Jarkko had an
itch.He scratched it. I'm doing the same here.
Best,
David
