Thread: 9.1alpha3 release notes help
I'm unable to produce any really "exciting" release notes for alpha3. I have produced a draft here: http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Alpha_release_notes_draft Please edit the bullet points if you have some idea.

Expanded with my edits on the wiki. BTW, we really ought to push the PostGIS folks to get coding for, and testing, KNNGiST immediately. -- -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://www.pgexperts.com

Well pg_execute_from_file is the name of a patch that went in, but after review, the function of the same name has been taken out. As a result we do not have pg_execute_from_file() nor pg_execute_sql_file() in alpha3 and we won't have it later with extensions. There's the configuration file parsing merge that we might want to tell users about. You no longer have to follow different quoting rules in the recovery.conf and postgresql.conf files.
