Hi,

We are implementing table partitioning feature to support
- the attached commands. The syntax conforms to most of the suggestion mentioned in http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2008-01/msg00413.php, barring the following:
-- Specification of partition names is optional. System will be able to generate partition names in such cases.
-- sub partitioning
 We are using pgsql triggers to push/move data to appropriate partitions, but we will definitely consider moving to C language triggers as suggested by manu.
- Global non-partitioned indexes (that will extend all the partitions).
- Foreign key support for tables referring to partitioned tables.

Please feel free to post your comments and suggestions.

Thanks,
Amit
