There was a lenghty, interesting discussion about this topic in the
developer meeting in Ottawa.
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PgCon_2008_Developer_Meeting#Partitioning_Roadmap


The discussion is indeed interesting. But again the notes do not indicate any broad consensus on the roadmap :). 

The current inheritance based mechanism has its pros-cons and there seem to be a multitude of requests/expectations around partitioning from different quarters. Even basic consensus about the syntax is missing. What we need is a step-by-step approach (starting with fixing up the syntax - if it can be done like that) and working our way downwards towards the underlying representation/planning for partitions...

Regards,
Nikhils
