The default make target is a poor quality image, rendering aprox. 2 minutes on my 333MHz PII. So adding/removing pins can be verified/tested quickly. Only rendering the final image in full quality is what pushes the CPU against the wall.

Good job on the globe, Jan! > > How much code do I have to contribute to get a marker on Sydney? :) That's a good question. We normally give "pins" out to people who have contributed a code over a significant period of time. For example, Peter Eisentraut is almost ready for a pin. We would normally wait for his feature patches to be released, and then wait a few months to see if he is still around. We look for people who we feel are in this for the long haul. -- Bruce Momjian | http://www.op.net/~candle pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 853-3000+ If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania19026
Yep those pop-up pictures on the globe are cool. My initial reaction - I'm glad I've got a beard, because it looks to be a pre-requisite for hacking on postgresql!!!

Vadim seens to have disappeared from earth, I hope you are not going to remove his pin yet ;) Hopefully he won't be away from postgres for the full 6 year he'll spend in America. > We look for people who we feel are in this for the > long haul. ------------- Hannu

He's pretty busy at the moment with getting settled in, but I'm sure
he'll be participating again soon.
