AIP - Assessoria Informática e Proteção LTDASomeone knows how is going the implementation of cross database references in pgsql ?
Would have some future release with this great functionality ?

This is usually left up to the front-end.  Usually for me, perl DBI.  This way, I
can connect to multiple databases, possibly all of different types (PgSQL, Oracle,
Informix, ...).

I'm sure the SQL gurus can corret me, but I was under the impression that 
cross-database references in the backend would be capital-D Difficult to 
implement with transaction support.   Then there's the further tearing asunder
of the ANSI SQL standard...

Olá Pedro,

Look at the dblink module under the contrib section of PostgreSQL. It
implements the feature you're looking for.
