OK, I talked to Marc and he is going to package up beta1 tonight.

Any more changes to HISTORY?

I want to run pgindent in an hour.  Does anyone have a problem with
that?

This is missing:

- Implemented START TRANSACTION, per SQL99 (Neil)

This was implemented by Peter, I think:

- Add privileges on functions and procedural languages

This was done by Tom, IIRC:

- Triggers are now fired in alphabetical order

This could probably be better phrased:

- Have PL/PgSQL FOUND return proper value for PERFORM and SELECT INTO
  (Tom, Neil)

As (reword as necessary):

- Overhaul the PL/PgSQL FOUND magic variable to be more
  Oracle-compatible, and generally more sane. (Tom, Neil)

This was implemented by me and Jukka Holappa:

- Clean up use of sprintf in favor of snprintf()

Tom did some work on this as well as Chris, I believe:

- Add ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN (Christopher)

I didn't see any mention of Tom's recent changes to the on-disk array
storage format, but I might have just missed that.

Cheers,

Neil

Done.  I didn't mention it earlier because I was unsure of its
significance.

Yep, fixed.

Yep, Tom.

I already see it.  I added Tom's name too:

Cleanups in array internal handling (Joe, Tom)

Re: Beta1 schedule
Line 72 of the HISTORY file (the one in 7.3b1 that Marc just packaged) reads:

* Pre-6.3 clients are no longer supported.

Is that supposed to be 7.3? I assume you're referring to the catalog changes, 
&c. that make old clients that are dependent on them behave incorrectly.

No, he's referring to the on-the-wire protocol.  This means that the psql
program that came with 6.2 will not work with 7.3, but the 7.2 psql will
still (mostly) work.
