Thread: PostgreSQL 16 release announcement
Hi, Attached is the first draft of the PostgreSQL 16 release announcement, authored by Chelsea Dole & myself. To frame this up, the goal of the GA release announcement is to help folks discover the awesome new features of PostgreSQL. It's impossible to list out every single feature in the release and still have a coherent announcement, so we try to target features that have the broadest range of impact. It's possible we missed or incorrectly stated something, so please provide feedback if we did so. (Note I have not added in all of the links etc. to the Markdown yet, as I want to wait for the first pass of feedback to come through). **Please provide feedback by August 26, 12:00 UTC**. After that point, we need to freeze all changes so we can begin the release announcement translation effort. Thanks, Jonathan

Nitpick, but the Linux downloads can have a download/linux link as well to match Windows/macOS: [Windows](https://www.postgresql.org/download/windows/), [Linux](https://www.postgresql.org/download/), [macOS](https://www.postgresql.org/download/macosx/), -- Daniel Gustafsson

What does the improvements to access control have to do with large work loads ?

This took me a moment to realize what you were referring to because you didn't provide the sentence in question. The theme is built around the changes in the host configuration files that allow for regular expressions and includes, which, from discussing with users, benefits people who are managing larger fleets of PostgreSQL. That said, I see the confusion around the wording. I've changed it to this below, and attached the latest copy based on other feedback. ==snip== and greater flexibility in defining access control rules for management of policies across large fleets. ==snip== Reminder that the window to submit changes closes at **August 26, 12:00 UTC**. Thanks, Jonathan

In "performance" section: « It also introduces `RIGHT` and `OUTER` "anti-joins", which enable users to identify rows not present in a joined table.» It's a bit confusing for me: is it about the planner improvements or there is something else ? --- Cédric Villemain +33 (0)6 20 30 22 52 https://Data-Bene.io PostgreSQL Expertise, Support, Training, R&D
