PostgreSQL Weekly News - April 16 2006

Dan Harris said "Once again, thank you and all of the developers for your hard work on PostgreSQL. This is by far the most pleasant management experience of any database I've worked on." http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-performance/2006-04/msg00247.php

We need students and mentors who want to work on PostgreSQL projects for Google's next Summer Of Code. One of last year's winners was http://pgfoundry.org/projects/qbe/ Query By Example. If you are a professor or a college/gradute student interested in doing a database-oriented Summer of Code project, especially if you already have your own project which relates to PostgreSQL, please contact Josh Berkus (josh@postgresql.org) as soon as possible.

Tom Lane refactored CREATE AGGREGATE, opening the door to multiple-input aggregates.
