Thread: HISTORY addition
Bruce, Please add followings to HISTORY: Formats with the correct number of columns for UNICODE in psql (Patrice) Add ISO 8859-5,6,7,8 support (Tatsuo) Optimize LIKE/ILIKE when using single-byte encodings (Tatsuo) Also I suggest we note somewhere that now octet_length(text) returns the length BEFORE compression for an incompatible change. -- Tatsuo Ishii

Thanks. But I did nothing for this. Please remove my name. BTW, are we going to make followings happen for 7.2? * Add octet_length_server() and octet_length_client() (Thomas, Tatsuo) * Make octet_length_client the same as octet_length() -- Tatsuo Ishii
