Thanks for working on this.
* Add CREATE DATABASE LOCALE option (Fabien COELHO)
* Add function gen_random_uuid to generate version 4 UUIDs (Fabien COELHO)
I'm not responsible for these, I just reviewed them. ISTM that the author
for both is the committer, Peter Eisentraut.
Maybe there is something amiss in the commit-log-to-release-notes script?
My name clearly appears after "reviewed by:?"
* "DOCUMENT THE DEFAULT GENERATION METHOD"
=> The default is still to generate data client-side.
I do not see a "documentation" section, whereas there has been significant
doc changes, such as function table layouts (Tom), glossary (Corey,
Jürgen, Roger, Alvarro), binary/text string functions (Karl) and possibly
others. Having a good documentation contributes to making postgres a very
good tool, improving it is is not very glamorous, ISTM that such
contributions should not be overlooked.
