I think that last point is fairly convincing. I've not read the
new material, but I didn't get further than the first line of
the new chapter file before noting a copy-and-paste error:
inline patch 1: doc/src/sgml/xact.sgml (+1/-0 lines) download inline-1.patch--- /dev/null+++ b/doc/src/sgml/xact.sgml@@ -0,0 +1,205 @@+<!-- doc/src/sgml/mvcc.sgml -->
That doesn't leave me with a warm feeling that it's ready to ship.
I too vote for reverting it out of the released branches.
regards, tom lane
