:-(

I was asking to add the vacuum delayed patch to 7.4 months ago and the response
was: why introduce instability to a stable release ?
I hope the global consensus is a no way to procede also for ARC.

It's true the version 7.5 ( or 8.0 ) will be really a great release but
IMHO introduce in one shot:

1) PITR
2) Nested Transaction
3) WIN32 porting
4) ARC
5) Table Space
6) I'm sure I'm forgetting something

was really too much.

I hope that all will be fine.
