Things I'd particularly like to have that aren't entirely on the map yet: - In place upgrade - Stored procedures that can manage transactions (e.g. - contrast with present stored functions that forcibly live *inside* a transaction context; the point isn't functions vs procedures, but rather to have something that can do txn management) I'd expect that txn-managing procedures could then enable various sorts of usages involving other interesting bits: - Managing 2PC - Managing NOTIFY/LISTEN - Managing jobs (e.g. - "pgcron") - Using dblink()/SQL-MED to manage cross-DB work I'd expect these all to be the sorts of side-effects enabled by the one change... -- http://linuxfinances.info/info/linuxdistributions.html Calvin Trillin - "Health food makes me sick." -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
