Thanks, Tom! I always choose optimism.
I've been in open source for a while, and this is the first time I've
seen this approach.
I have a plan to further improve Postgres performance in terms of
Unicode (and not only) (which is kind of the foundation for working with
text).
I don't want to overwhelm the community with patches. I take a
systematic approach.
Once again, thank you, Tom. The community's approach has become clearer.
