Hi everyone;

I was wondering what folks thought about removing support for Pg 8.3 at this point, since there are no further releases expected from the PostgreSQL team.

If we remove Pg 8.3 support, we should be able to remove all contrib dependencies (which are all removed if you have 8.4 or higher and you rebuild your db anyway).

What do you mean by removing 8.3 support? Mid 1.3? Or before we release 1.4?

In case of the latter, I'm fine with that. However, in case of the former I wonder if that's wise: it'll create an obstacle on the upgrade path for people to get bugfixes.

Bye,

Erik.
