The endterm attribute is mainly useful when the toolchain does not support
automatic link target text generation for a particular situation. In the
past, this was required by the man page tools for all reference page links,
but that is no longer the case, and it now actually gets in the way of
proper automatic link text generation. The only remaining use cases are
currently xrefs to refsects.
another section if required by the platform (instead of the old way of
building them in section "l" and always transforming them to the
platform-specific section).
This speeds up the installation on common platforms, and it avoids some
funny business with the man page tools and build process.
aggregates, conversions, functions, operators, operator classes,
schemas, types, and tablespaces. Fold the existing implementations
of alter domain owner and alter database owner in with these.

documentation (xindex.sgml should be rewritten), need to teach pg_dump
about it, need to update contrib modules that currently build pg_opclass
entries by hand. Original patch by Bill Studenmund, grammar adjustments
and general update for 7.3 by Tom Lane.
pg_relcheck is gone; CHECK, UNIQUE, PRIMARY KEY, and FOREIGN KEY
constraints all have real live entries in pg_constraint. pg_depend
exists, and RESTRICT/CASCADE options work on most kinds of DROP;
however, pg_depend is not yet very well populated with dependencies.
(Most of the ones that are present at this point just replace formerly
hardwired associations, such as the implicit drop of a relation's pg_type
entry when the relation is dropped.) Need to add more logic to create
dependency entries, improve pg_dump to dump constraints in place of
indexes and triggers, and add some regression tests.
capabilities of specifying time zones as intervals per SQL9x.
Put refentrytitle contents on the same line as the tag.
Otherwise, leading whitespace is propagated into the product, which
(at least) messes up the ToC layout.
Remove (some) docinfo tags containing dates. Best to omit if the dates
are not accurate; maybe use CVS dates instead or leave them out.
===================
In Notes:
Refer to CREATE FUNCTION for information on creating aggregate functions.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I assume it must read C function instead.
In Compatibility SQL/PSM:
SQL/PSM is a proposed standard.
We had that before: remove proposed.
drop_index.sgml:
================
<REFNAME>: Removes existing indexes from a database
as far as I can see index should be singular. The command description is
written as if only one index can be removed at a time. Interestingly
enough, in v7.0.2 it was in fact singular. Am I mistaken here?
drop_operator.sgml:
===================
In Outputs the arguments are referred to as type and type2, but the synopsis
and Inputs section these are left_type and right_type, respectively. Also,
oper is used in Outputs versus id in Inputs/Synopsis. In the translation I
follow the replaceables used in the Inputs/Synopsis part.

No big deal; fixed lots of other markup at the same time.
Bigest change: make sure there is no whitespace
in front of <term> contents.
This will probably help the other output types too.
