Thread: HISTORY fixes
This patch fixes a few grammatical errors, removes some duplicate entries, and attributes some JDBC changes to the right people. Please apply for 7.3. Cheers, Neil P.S. Rather than updating HISTORY in one go before we make a release, what does everyone think of the idea of updating HISTORY whenver a patch that makes a user-visible change is committed? -- Neil Conway <neilc@samurai.com> || PGP Key ID: DB3C29FC

Peter already set up a convention for that: patch the short list near
the front of doc/src/sgml/release.sgml.
HISTORY is a derived file, really; you should be patching release.sgml
I think, not HISTORY.

Just a clarification. If you are changing 7.3 stuff, /HISTORY is the place to do it. If it is prior releases, release.sgml is the place, and when Peter regenerates HISTORY as part of the final release, /HISTORY is updated. This is easy to figure out because release.sgml doesn't have info in it for 7.3 yet. -- 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, Pennsylvania 19073
