 That's a pretty quick request - usually it should be given some time to
stabilize. But given that Martin is tracking it pretty well himself and
switch to pg 8.3 RC as default already in unstable I think it might
still be a reasonable request anyway.

 I do the backports of 8.2 already and am aware of it - and well, I
thought it doesn't make much sense to upload a RC already, even if I'm
aware that Martin is doing a great job here.

 Thanks, will give it a shot.

 I have it on my agenda, just not with an urgent priority. Are the new
features and improvements really that stunning to rush it in?

 So long,
