Hi,
I consider myself poor, inexperienced postgres
administrator (which is not really my job, but
we cannot afford a dba), but I moved from 8.2.3
to 8.3.0 about a month ago. It took some planning
and reading, but with the preparation I did, it
went pretty smooth. Just my 2 bits as a first-
hand experience.
Also in a recent linux magazine (I don't know if
that's your platform or not, but...) there was
this article: http://www.linux-mag.com/id/5679
which may be a good source of information.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Tena Sakai

no, no. Apps can't assume a automatic cast to text. Read the release notes:

E.2.2.1. General
