Thread: Going through email
As you can see, I am going through the items we put on hold while in 7.2 beta and am asking for updated patches if avaialble. I will be moving patches that are ready to the patches area and will announce this so they can be reviewed before application. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 853-3000+ If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania19026

Most of the patches I see in the 48-hour queue are wrong. The authors have not addressed the concerns that were raised during the initial discussion and you're just picking up the last state of the patch. Please flush the patch queue completely and make the authors submit a new patch with a clear explanation. -- Peter Eisentraut peter_e@gmx.net

I can do that but I tried to put in only the good ones. What I can do instead is to restore the old patches2 file and allow people like you and Tom to decide which ones should be applied. Is that what people want? You will then be able to download the mailbox file and open it in your mailer. Let me know what people want. I am not sure this is working either. It is my first time trying this. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 853-3000+ If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania19026

It's a good idea to save open threads like this and inform people that we're open for business again. But most of these threads just leveled off because we were in beta, and the discussion was not closed out. So most of these patches aren't going to get better by rearranging the email archives. The least people could do it take the half hour and merge up and send their patch again with an explanation, because in that pile of email I can't find any. -- Peter Eisentraut peter_e@gmx.net

I am restoring the full file for your review. Will let you know when I have it. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 853-3000+ If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania19026
