Hi list,

No need to send out the press release :-), I was alreday grilled half
an hour by a French journalist about v8. He had apparently read an
interview of Marc Fournier somewhere.

Anyway, the journalist had a question about tablespaces. I told him it
enabled clustering on individual disks or arrays of disks. The
journalist then said that this seemed like a rather basic feature and
was surprised that PostgreSQL wasn't already able to do that in the
previous versions. Is that indeed the case or was there another
clustering mechanism before?

Thanks for any clues
