Hello

We talked about enhancing a plpgsql plugin API to support more active plugins.

I wrote a prototype based on function plpgsql_register_plugin instead rendezvous variable.

There are two basic questions:

a) will we support rendezvous variable still?

b) will we support same API still - a reference on plugin_info in exec state is a issue - described in patch.

without a) a d b) we will break a current plugins little bit more than is usual - not terrible hard to fix it.  But without a) and b) a implementation can be significantly cleaner.

Comments, notes?

Regards

Pavel
