PostgreSQL 8.4 Out

Posted by timothy on from the would-you-name-your-daughter-postgres? dept.

TheFuzzy writes "PostgreSQL version 8.4 is now out and available for download. The main cool features in this version are: recursive queries (for doing trees etc.), windowing functions (for doing reports) column-level permissions, parallel database restore, a beta in-place upgrade tool, and a host of administrative improvements. And, of course, better performance, mainly on reporting queries. Some of the over 200 new or enhanced features are listed here."

    Either that or the postgress fanbois really are getting all the chicks and I am on the wrong bandwagon.
