7.1 released on 2000-09-01?

Hi,

[pgsql-docs@postgresql.org doesn't seem to accept this report,
so I send it to you.]

The PostgreSQL Administrator's Guide says in the release notes:

Release 7.1
Release date 2000-09-01.

I wish that was true!

Unfortunately, everwhere else on the site the latest release is 7.0.3.

See for your self: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/admin/release.htm

I guess you better correct this (of explain it).

Bye,
Edwin Martin.

Wow, I see it now from your URL.  That is totally weird.  It isn't even
close because it states the major 7.1 feature is block comments!

I noticed it does not mention 7.0.3.  Must be some strange old version.

Somone, please help explain this.

The /docs directory is where the docs used to be.  I was about to remove
it when I noticed you guys were still maintaining FAQs and stuff in it.
The only two real doc directories are in the user's lounge and developer's
corner.  A number of people bookmarked the old location because of the
old site that used frames.

That text agrees with what was in release.sgml back around July (see
release.sgml version 1.57 ... ain't CVS wonderful?).  That was after
the 7.0.* branch-off.  So what we have here is documents generated from
the development tip that aren't being updated.

We should get rid of the out-of-date documents, for sure.  Maybe put in
a link to the ones that are kept up to date?
