Per discussion, we should explain that we follow RFC 3339 and not really
the letter of the ISO 8601 spec for timestamp output format. Mostly
Brendan Jurd's wording, though I tweaked it to clarify that we do take 'T'
on input. Minor additional copy-editing and markup-tweaking, too.
initdb: Add -T option
oid2name: Put options in some non-random order
pg_dump: Put --section option in the right place
And some additional markup and terminology improvements.
Since we've got an "open items" list item about this, apparently some
people are pretty worried about it.
In passing remove a lot of trailing whitespace.
This example was quite old: it lacked the WAL writer and autovac launcher
as well as the more recently added checkpointer. Linux "ps" seems to show
slightly different stuff now too.
We previously recognized that citext wouldn't get marked as collatable
during pg_upgrade from a pre-9.1 installation, and hacked its
create-from-unpackaged script to manually perform the necessary catalog
adjustments. However, we overlooked the fact that domains over citext,
as well as the citext[] array type, need the same adjustments. Extend
the script to handle those cases.
Also, the documentation suggested that this was only an issue in pg_upgrade
scenarios, which is quite wrong; loading any dump containing citext from a
pre-9.1 server will also result in the type being wrongly marked.
I approached the documentation problem by changing the 9.1.2 release note
paragraphs about this issue, which is historically inaccurate. But it
seems better than having the information scattered in multiple places, and
leaving incorrect info in the 9.1.2 notes would be bad anyway. We'll still
need to mention the issue again in the 9.1.4 notes, but perhaps they can
just reference 9.1.2 for fix instructions.
Per report from Evan Carroll. Back-patch into 9.1.
Rewrite description of "include_if_exists" for clarity. Add subsection
headings to make the structure of the page a little clearer. A couple
other minor improvements too.

HEAD documentation was failing to build as US PDF for me, because a link
to "CREATE CAST" was getting split across pages. Adjust wording to
remove this rather gratuitous cross-reference.
It was already on its last legs, and it turns out that it was
accidentally broken in commit 89e850e6fd
and no one cared. So remove the rest the support for it and update
the documentation to indicate that Python 2.3 is now required.
It'd be nice to be able to spell Jan Urbanski's name with the correct
accent marks, but we haven't yet found a way that works in everybody's
docs toolchain. This way definitely doesn't.
Create separate appendixes for contrib extensions and other server
plugins on the one hand, and utility programs on the other. Recast
the documentation of the latter as refentries, so that man pages are
generated.
