Thread: Updatable views

Hi,

Is anybody working on Bernd's updatable views patch?  Right now I'm
having a look at it -- mainly fixing some cosmetic issues right now,
intending to eventually do an actual code review.

I'll post an updated patch at some point -- if someone wants to have a
look or do some intensive review, just ask and I'll send whatever I
have.

Great.  You have been a big help in the past in reviewing patches during
feature freeze.  Also Neil used to help too.

I have talked to Tom and he knows the outstanding patches that are out
there.  I am going through the less visible ones and hope to put up an
outstanding patch list in the next week, but if you are going to be
involved too, I will try to do it sooner.

Great --- it's on my to-do list but I'm happy to have more eyeballs
on it.  My advice is to look first for showstoppers: is there anything
fundamentally wrong/broken?  With something like this it's not at all
unlikely that the basic approach doesn't really work.

No hurry from me; I've got a lot of other things to look at too,
so I'll just drop this one back towards the end of the list.
