Out of curiosity, how is this file maintained as development is done?
The reason I'm asking is because it would be nice to have links to more
information, especially for the 'one-liner' items in 1.3.1 for example,
and it seems like that would be easier to do along-the-way rather than
waiting for the end. Even a link to a mailing list discussion would be
better than nothing...
That said, what's
Improve the optimizer, including auto-resizing of hash joins (Tom)
mean?
On full_page_writes, are we certain that all battery-backed disk caches
ensure that partial-page writes can't happen?
Maybe pg_column_size should just be included in the item for all the
other size functions brought into the backend? If not, ISTM they should
at least be one after the other in the list...
Finally, weren't more changes made it contrib than what's listed?
Nothing's said about pg_autovacuum for example.
