1. Caught up

   Bruce Momjian <bruce@momjian.us> — 2012-09-03T14:20:07Z

   I spent the month of August going through 1.7k emails I had saved from
   the previous year that required my attention.  I want to thank everyone
   for helping me close many open items, and for tolerating my questions.
   
   Ideally I would have dealt with many of these emails earlier, but time
   constraints caused the delay.  On a bright note, August seems to be an
   ideal time to catch up, and I plan on doing a similar cleaning next
   August, hopefully with less backlog.
   
   On a related note, I apologize that many of these items didn't make it
   into 9.2, though they are committed for 9.3.  The good news is that most
   of my work was in documentation improvements and clarifications, that
   could be backpatched to 9.2.  I did not bring this up earlier because I
   didn't want to distract the work of making the improvements.  
   
   If anyone wants to look at backpatching some of these doc changes into
   9.2, I will not object.  ;-)  I am attaching a partial list of doc
   changes that might be considered.  (I need to improve my commit messages
   that reference earlier commits by including the old commit tag;  my
   apologies.)  No one has mentioned backpatching so perhaps these are all
   too minor, which is fine.
   
   Again, many thanks.  I feel much better without the weight of
   uncompleted items over my head.

   That's a huge number of amendments. Thanks for giving these some
   attention Bruce.

   FWIW I tried to backpatch the changes listed by Bruce and they all seem
   to apply fine to 9.2 so maybe we should do that -- I see no reason not
   to.
