Hi
I encountered something that puzzled me a bit.
Is it expected that DROP table CASCADE drops this table and just the foreign key constraints but not the refering tables?

Hi Andreas,
yes, it is expected, at least according to the documentation: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/ddl-depend.html
"In this case, it doesn't remove the orders table, it only removes the foreign key constraint."
