status of 7.3 docs?

From

It sounds like the 7.3 docs are "in progress".  Coincidentally, I have
just about run out of the existing PostgreSQL DOSSIER volumes.  Could
someone tell me

   *  the status of the 7.3 set

   *  what changes you would like to see (e.g., inclusions, exclusions,
      re-organization) in a new set

   *  whether a solution has been found for the even/odd page numbering
      problem that afflicted the last set

In principle, the 7.3 documentation as released is done.  It's certainly
not "in progress" at this point.  There may be typo fixes or the like in
7.3.1 etc.  But...

If you saw my message yesterday about a structural reorganization you
might be interested in waiting until it's done (maybe a few weeks).  I'm
not sure whether that reorganization will be put into the official
7.3-branch docs, but it will be useful if you want to print books.

That's a toolchain issue.  I don't think a lot has happened there since we
last looked.  I think you can adjust the page numbering in the
intermediate TeX file rather easily though.

Yes, there will be a few typo fixes, and in future releases we may have
more cleanups in minor releases now that I know they are being rebuilt.

It is unlikely we will backpatch that to 7.3.X.  Odds are it will be too
massive, and we normally don't backpatch feature improvements.  However,
if Peter wants to, I don't think anyone would object.
