Thread: snowball update
There is another snowball release out, and I have prepared a patch to integrate it. It's very big and mostly boring, so I'm not attaching it here, but you can see it at https://github.com/petere/postgresql/commit/d0aa6c2148bcef10942959035ce14f1810873593.patch Major changes are new stemmers for Armenian, Serbian, and Yiddish.

We don't have (and really it's impossible) regression test for stemmers, so maybe we should warn users about possible inconsistencies of old tsvectors and new stemmers ? -- Postgres Professional: http://www.postgrespro.com The Russian Postgres Company

Yeah, it's analogous to collation and Unicode updates. We could invent a versioning mechanism; we have some of the infrastructure for that now. But until we do that, perhaps some more elaborate guidance in the major version release notes would be appropriate.
