review
script binaries renaming
We must conduct a poll on a wide audience, say pgsql-general. Zdenek?

Updated WITH clause patch (non-recursive)
Fragments in tsearch2 headline
Needs to be updated to apply against core tsearch instead of contrib. Teodor had other suggestions too.
SQL/PSM
This isn't maintainable unless it's refactored to eliminate code duplication with plpgsql.
psql slash# command
Author will revise based on discussion.
Consistent \d commands in psql
Discussion led to a redesign that now needs to be implemented.
