Too late for 8.0.1. It's not like there won't be any more 8.0 releases ;-) regards, tom lane

It's not like there won't be any more 8.0 releases ;-) A bigger question is whether we want to modify the timezone datbase in minor releases. Such a change could cause application behavior changes. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 359-1001+ If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania19073

The reason the zic database changes so often is that in certain parts of the world they throw dice before deciding what this year's DST transition dates will be (or so it seems anyway ;-)). We do need to make an effort to keep it up-to-date, or it will be wrong for those folks. regards, tom lane
