I presume we can also just make some comments ;-)

this item:

Add new GUC parameter to report useful information at the start of each
log line
should probably read "Add new GUC parameter log_line_prefix ....."

I think this item belongs to me, or me and Tom:

Replace the virtual_host and tcpip_socket parameters with a unified
listen_addresses parameter.

Conversely, Tom deserves joint billing for dollar quoting, as most of what I
did was based on his work.

David Fetter should be mentioned under the dollar quoting and plperl items,
as he did documentation for both.

Tom's implementation of a new flex-based lexer for psql is a significant
source code change which should be mentioned.

cheers
