Tom,

I've read that 7.2 release is planned in 2 months.
Do you have a plan to work with index_formtuple ?
This is a stopper for our work on implementation of
B-tree using GiST. We have implemented B-Tree for int4
and timestamp/datetime types but with some hack
(all keys are of type varlena and pass-by-reference) and
waiting for resolution of known problem with
index_formtuple. We badly need it in our real life projects
in anyway.

	Regards,
		Oleg

At the moment I'm trying to concentrate on fixing VACUUM.
When that's done, maybe I can spend some time on GIST issues.
