For your own digestion :) 8.3.0 is the latest current stable release from postgresql.org. However it *is* brand new. For your purposes it may make sense to stick with a slightly older but still stable release of 8.2.6 or 8.1.11. If your sysadmin has a problem with this, feel free to point him to us. I am sure there are plenty of people on the list that would be willing to set him straight. Sincerely, Joshua D.
