Postgres-XC 0.9.5 released

Hi all,

The release of Postgres-XC 0.9.5 has been done in Source Forge and in GIT.
Postgres-XC GIT repository: http://postgres-xc.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=postgres-xc/postgres-xc;a=summary
Source forge page: https://sourceforge.net/projects/postgres-xc/

A new branch called REL0_9_5 has been created. It contains all the commits made in PostgreSQL 9.0 stable branch up to today.
A new tag related to the release has been created, called XC0_9_5_PG9_0 to refer to its base which is PostgreSQL 9.0.
So this release is based on PostgreSQL 9.0.4.

Postgres-XC contains a bunch of new features:
- Support of PITR, by the creation of a consistent barrier system in the cluster
- Support for GROUP BY
- Support for new types of distribution keys
- Support of session parameters
- Support of pooler with multiple users (ROLE, GRANT, REVOKE, etc.)
- Support of GTM-standby
- Support of GTM proxy reconnection
- System has been stabilized with DBT-1 and regressions
- Support of aggregates has been improved
- Cluster setting has been simplified! No more user and password dependency in pooler.

Postgres-XC is now under PostgreSQL license (like BSD, but not BSD).
It is important to know that a project hosted by Source Forge cannot choose the PostgreSQL license in the list of available options.
It is currently set as "Other license" but the license text has been saved as PostgreSQL license.
However the code tar or the code in GIT contain a correct copyright file.

Thanks,
