The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:
Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/static/datatype-datetime.html
Description:
On the page for Data Types - DateTime, there is this part of a sentence:
"....so the same time zone names are also recognized by much other
software."
The phrase of "much other software" is what caught me. An optional
replacement would be: "many other software systems." or "multiple software
packages."
"much" has a connotation that doesn't fit here as well as "many" or
"multiple" would.
Thanks for the documentation. It has been very helpful in clarifying some
things.
--Kevin.
