I can't prove it right now because I can't get into archives.postgresql.org --- which is the same machine as ftp.postgresql.org, so I suppose it's slashdotted into oblivion :-(. And it's also mail.postgresql.org, so perhaps not everyone's copies have been delivered yet. But that would strongly suggest that quite a few people did see the announcement, eh? Sorry if you guys are at the tail end of the delivery list... regards, tom lane PS: my archived copy looks like: Received: from server1.pgsql.org (www.postgresql.org [64.49.215.9])by sss.pgh.pa.us (8.11.4/8.11.4) with SMTP id g15GC1f25200for<tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>; Tue, 5 Feb 2002 11:12:01 -0500 (EST) Received: (qmail 81101 invoked by alias); 5 Feb 2002 16:08:36 -0000 Received: from unknown (HELO postgresql.org) (64.49.215.8) by www.postgresql.org with SMTP; 5 Feb 2002 16:08:36 -0000 Received: from earth.hub.org (earth.hub.org [64.49.215.11])by postgresql.org (8.11.3/8.11.4) with ESMTP id g15G1Sl78800;Tue,5 Feb 2002 11:01:28 -0500 (EST)(envelope-from scrappy@postgresql.org) Received: from localhost (scrappy@localhost)by earth.hub.org (8.11.3/8.11.6) with ESMTP id g15G1OF20685;Tue, 5 Feb 2002 12:01:24-0400 (AST)(envelope-from scrappy@postgresql.org) X-Authentication-Warning: earth.hub.org: scrappy owned process doing -bs Date: Tue, 5 Feb 2002 12:01:24 -0400 (AST) From: "Marc G.

PostgreSQL v7.2, another step forward for the project. A full list of changes to v7.2 can be found in the HISTORY file, included with the release, as well as under all ftp mirrors as: /pub/README.v7_2 Highlights of this release are as follows: VACUUM Vacuuming no longer locks tables, thus allowing normal user access during the vacuum. A new "VACUUMFULL" command does old-style vacuum by locking the table and shrinking the on-disk copy of the table. Transactions There is no longer a problem with installations that exceed four billion transactions. OID's OID's are now optional. Users can now create tables without OID's for cases where OID usage isexcessive. Optimizer The system now computes histogram column statistics during "ANALYZE", allowing much betteroptimizer choices. Security A new MD5 encryption option allows more secure storage and transfer of passwords. A new Unix-domainsocket authentication option is available on Linux and BSD systems. Statistics Administrators can use the new table access statistics module to get fine-grained informationabout table and index usage. Internationalization Program and library messages can now be displayed in several languages. .. with many many more bug fixes, enhancements and performance related changes ... Source for this release is available on all mirrors under: /pub/source/v7.2 As always, any bugs with this release should be reported to pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org ... and, as with all point releases, this release requires a complete dump and reload from previous releases, due to internal structure changes ...
