Looks great! Hope you find time to get back to it, and I'll be happy
to help with sgml markup.

btw, if you could finish a first draft (or have enough sections to be
usable) within a month or so there is a good chance we can get it
included in the v7.0 release. Much later than that and we'll probably
miss the window...

This looks really good.  Please, please, please keep working on this
documentation.

Wish I'd had your work several months ago!!

Hello Ivo. Have you had a chance to make progress on your docs? I'm
sure people would be *very* interested in them for the upcoming
release, and if you need some help on finishing the writing or editing
I'm sure there will be some volunteers.

Regards.

                      - Thomas

I'm willing to help with explanations. But I won't have the time to write
docs in time for the release. In fact I even haven't found the time to
tackle my one and only todo item for 7.0.

BTW I have a problem with a user defined function. I posted a question about
some time ago but got no answer. The source is part of our source tree
(pgsql/src/interfaces/ecpg/test[test5.pgc|stp.pgc]). 

I can insert it but when I execute it I get a result of -220 which is not
exactly the minimu of 14 and 7.

Any ideas? Just hitting make in ecpg/test should build the binaries. YOu
just have to adjust the path in test5.pgc.

Michael
