Hi,
The Postgres Pro documentation team prepared another SQL/JSON
documentation patch (attached), to apply on top of
v1-0009-Documentation-for-SQL-JSON-features.patch.
The new patch:
- Fixes minor typos
- Does some rewording agreed with Nikita Glukhov
- Updates Docbook markup to make tags consistent across SQL/JSON
documentation and across func.sgml, and in particular, consistent with
the XMLTABLE function, which resembles SQL/JSON functions pretty much.
