No I cannot risk live data...
But I (think I) read that 8.2 was expected to go final in November/December.
So my question was is it worth waiting for 8.2 final or to go with 8.1.5
now. I guess going with 8.1.5 is what we should do.
Thanks

We're looking to upgrade from 7.4 - should we go to 8.1.5 or 8.2?
We have two databases; 7.4.6 and 7.4.11 in a master slave config using
Slony. Both databases use the C locale with UTF-8 encoding on unix.
We've dumped and loaded the data into an 8.1.4 database and have seen no
problems with invalid UTF-8 sequences. So we're fairly happy that we can
upgrade to 8.1.5 pretty easily using Slony.
We're really looking for some extra performance right now.
Are the differences between 8.1.5 and 8.2 significant? Is 8.2 more about
speed or new features?
8.2 is not released yet. Can you risk your app on beta software?

Is "common sense" really valid?
For example, it is "common sense" to white-power racists that
whites are superior to blacks, and that those with brown skins
are mud people.
However, that "common sense" is obviously wrong.
