As far as I'm aware, JSON has no data types as such, and so why is
Postgres (9.4.1) attempting to impose its own nonsense constraints ?
"impose its own nonsense constraints" - breathe slowly in, and out, in,
and out.
It looks to me like ab14a73a6ca5cc4750f0e00a48bdc25a2293034a copied too
much code from xml.c - including a comment about XSD... Andrew, was that
intentional?
Possibly too much was copied, I don't recall a reason offhand for
excluding infinity. I'm not opposed to changing it (jsonb will have the
same issue). We do allow infinity (and NaN etc) when converting numerics
to json, so perhaps doing it for dates and timestamps too would be more
consistent.
cheers
