Hi *,

I have submitted a patch which does exactly this. Somebody edited it 
and Bruce put it on
the queue for 8.1.

Now we both did the same work twice. This is a good example how a 
public accessible
Bugtracker and TODO-List where one can claim things (or get assigned to 
some workitem)
can save valuable time.

Image someone likes to get in touch with the codebase by fixing some 
bugs first. To my
understanding, there is no Bug Database for Postgres (correct me, if I 
am wrong). Where can this volunteer lookup Bugs? I don't want to restart the 
Bugzilla Discussion,
since I personally don't have any preference which Trouble-Ticket 
System to use.
But I think the idea of having one is worth considering.

cheers,

Matthias
