Hello All,

I prepared patch for renaming postgreSQL script tools like createdb, createuser, etc. to pg_createdb, pg_creteuser. Original names will be kept for 2 or 3 following versions. The main reason for the patch is to avoid possible clash of names with systems tools.

And after long discussion on patches and hackers list we have made a decision than we need input from wide audience. This is a reason why I prepare following surveys.

See:

Please let us know your meaning,

        thanks Zdenek Kotala
