I never heard of a "weekly" version of the docs. The up-to-the-minute build is at http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/index.html regards, tom lane

It was under the 8.4 URL, because we were finishing up the documentation for 8.4 while the code was in RC. We stopped that one, because we didn't want to push post-release documentation changes onto the website. -- Magnus HaganderMe: http://www.hagander.net/Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/

I'm referring, as indicated in my first e-mail to link on this page: http://www.postgresql.org/developer/testing Historically, that was a link to the current HEAD docs, which were built on a regular (automated) basis; once upon a time they were on Bruce's server. Somehow with 8.4 someone broke that, and it now points to the 8.4 static docs. I need somewhere to point people to 8.5Alpha1 release notes, and that seems like the appropriate place. -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. www.pgexperts.com

That's what I'm referring to, though maybe using the wrong words :-) It was changed during 8.4RC to point to the daily builds of the 8.4 docs that we had at the time - that were on the main website. And yes, it should've been changed back at release, and wasn't. > I need somewhere to point people to 8.5Alpha1 release notes, and that > seems like the appropriate place. Yeah, agreed. -- Magnus HaganderMe: http://www.hagander.net/Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/
