Version 3.0.1 of PG Partition Manager, the first in the v3 series, has been released. This version contains initial support for native partitioning in the upcoming PostgreSQL 10 release. Native partitioning is still experimental at this point, but this release is being done now to encourage testing and to make sure it still works smoothly along side the old, trigger-based method. Both methods will be supported while they each have their own, exclusive benefits.
Other changes include simplification of partitioning types (now automatically determines time or id based on partition column data type) as well as simplified automatic maintenance. Automatic child table creation for serial partitioning has changed and no longer creates tables as part of the trigger code, so maintenance will now have to be scheduled for all partitioning types.
Many bugs have also been fixed, so please see the CHANGELOG for those and important upgrade information. Also check the updated documentation and howto guides. Thanks to all the users for feedback and support!
