Here's what I see as the remaining things we need to resolve before
wrapping 8.2RC1:
* Brendan Jurd's recent report about from_char/to_char not being
consistent about 'D':
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2006-11/msg00226.php
Is this a bug? If so I think we should fix it now.
* the to_char month/day name localization issue. Consensus at the
moment seems to be that we should revert the last-minute patch.
* possible rearrangement of pg_stat column order:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2006-11/msg00643.php
Should we do this, and if so should we force initdb (via a catversion
change)? I'm currently leaning to the thought that if we change it
we should force initdb, else we'll risk having a noticeable user-visible
difference between different "8.2" installations. Personally I'd vote
for the change, but I don't have any big beta databases to reload ;-)
BTW, if we do change system_views.sql I'm inclined to remove the hack
for pg_stat_file() at the bottom, and instead fix pg_proc.h --- initdb
can handle this properly now.
