So, I'm starting to go through the old man pages (those in src/man/) to verify that all information in them is available somewhere in the new docs. From here on, there is no need to update the src/man/ man pages when updating docs. Please do all updates in doc/src/sgml/{.,/ref}/*.sgml. I'll be removing the old man pages from the cvs tree, but not until I've got the new man page generating mechanism installed at postgresql.org. This should all be completed well in advance of a v6.6 release. TIA - Thomas -- Thomas Lockhart lockhart@alumni.caltech.edu South Pasadena, California
