Well, I was going to post a link to the message in the archives, but it
appears the archives aren't getting updated -- last good message is from
Philip Yarra at about 1400 on 10 July. Here's a copy of what Bruce
posted to HACKERS on July 10 later in the day:
"As some of you may already have realized, the Win32 port and point-in-time recovery (PITR) will not be in the 7.4
release.I was working on Win32, but ran out of time. Jan did not help. Patrick was working on PITR, but ran out
oftime too, and J.R might be helping him."
My new plan is for us to work on Win32 and PITR during the 7.4 beta. If they can be completed in time for 7.4
final,we will add those features and push out a 7.5 release soon afterwards.
This give us a nice short-term deadline to shoot for again."
