My bachelor's diploma is almost done and I will have enough time for GSoC

I want to take additional work-item for gsoc 2015.

I don't known, which item of todo is completed, but I compose list of
items:

1) add support for microvacuum for GIN index in common with Anastasiya
Lubennikova (she will be realize function amgettuple in GIN), if it's a
possible feature.

2) bug with Index on inet changes query result (

)

3) Teach GIN cost estimation about "fast scans"(I know very little about
GIN, but discussion in mailing list was interesting for me)

4) pg_restore unusable for expensive matviews (

)

5) may be community can suggest me such thing with GiST or microvacuum for
GiST will be usefull for all.
