And if the OP is worried about running too new a version of pgsql,
8.2.6 is very mature.  But if he's got 6 or more months until he goes
live, which is common, I'd recommend going to 8.3 which will be well
polished by then.


I would avoid 8.3 without extensive testing. 8.2.6 is likely a better
shot a minimizing one off incompatibilities.

We are in a very similar situation in that we are looking to migrate from 7.4 to 8.3. So seeing Scott's and Joshua's responses, I'm not sure if we should go with 8.2 or 8.3.

Joshua, are you disagreeing with Scott, or are you simply stating that if one is moving from 7.4 to 8.3, you should do extensive testing? We do plan to do so, but I just want to make sure I understand your post.
