8.0RC1 tomorrow
Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us> — 2004-12-02T17:08:11Z
The core committee has agreed that it's about time to advance to Release Candidate status (which we define as "code is frozen, but not docs nor message translation work"). Barring surprises, 8.0RC1 will be wrapped tomorrow (Friday). We never really issued a "call for port reports" as has been past practice. I think that Andrew Dunstan's build farm has partially obsoleted that custom, but if you have access to a platform that is not represented in the build farm, please do give it a try soon. regards, tom lane

Tom, Will ANALYZE continue to ignore columns whose data is composed entirely of NULL in 8.0? http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-performance/2004-11/msg00363.php Mike Mascari

What platforms are covered by the build farm? I couldn't find any info about it as I looked through the pages at http://developer.postgresql.org/ -Travis

I'm not seeing it immediately, but I'll keep my eye out. I've an AIX 5.1 system on which I could try to compile if you don't have one in the farm, though I usually build/deploy on Linux. -Travis

The platform coverage of the build farm is currently quite limited, and all those red lines don't make me feel better. I think we still need to check all the platforms explicitly. -- Peter Eisentraut http://developer.postgresql.org/~petere/

Unfortunately I got hit with some unexpected issues about a month ago that have restricted my available time rather. So far I have been concentrating on getting the clients working robustly - Windows and Cygwin have been something of a challenge, as expected. The server side is extremely simple - crude even. The database is as just 2 tables like this: pgbuildfarm=# \d buildsystems Table "public.buildsystems" Column | Type | Modifiers -----------------+------+----------- name | text | not null secret | text | not null operating_system | text | not null os_version | text | not null compiler | text | not null compiler_version | text | not null architecture | text | not null status | text | not null sys_owner | text | not null owner_email | text | not null Indexes: "buildsystems_pkey" primary key, btree (name) pgbuildfarm=# \d build_status Table "public.build_status" Column | Type | Modifiers ----------------------+-----------------------------+----------- sysname | text | not null snapshot | timestamp without time zone | not null status | integer | stage | text | log | text | conf_sum | text | branch | text | changed_this_run | text | changed_since_success | text | Indexes: "build_status_pkey" primary key, btree (sysname, snapshot) "bs_branch_snapshot_idx" btree (branch, snapshot) "bs_sysname_branch_idx" btree (sysname, branch) Foreign-key constraints: "bs_fk" FOREIGN KEY (sysname) REFERENCES buildsystems(name) ON UPDATE CASCADE ON DELETE CASCADE These were really more or less placeholders while I got things up and running. Any constructive input is welcome. Anyone who would like to make the web site look spiffy rather than pedestrian would be especially welcome (it's done in perl + template toolkit). cheers andrew -

I had hoped to get to this before RC, but it looks like it won't happen. Considering I've just been beating up on Bruce for committing stuff that wasn't clearly a bug fix, I can't really do anything about it now ;-) regards, tom lane

CONGRATULATIONS.... BTW - I have the OS/2 port running through to creating the template0 and template1 databases with initdb. I have a glitch with the fork() processing that seems to be in the OS/2 GCC 3.3.5 runtime, but I expect to have that resolved shortly. I am going to apply the patches from os/2 beta5 to RC 1 and see how it works.
