2f5c47e882 Move findoidjoins out of contrib and into src/tools, which is a more
logical place for it since it is of no use to users.  Per recent
discussions on cleaning up contrib.

bd18c50ba8 I have updated my pg_autovacuum program (formerly pg_avd, the name
changed as per discussion on the patches list).

This version should be a good bit better.  It addresses all the issues
pointed out by Neil Conway. Vacuum and Analyze are now handled
separately.  It now monitors for xid wraparound.  The number of database
connections and queries has been significantly reduced compared the
previous version.  I have moved it from bin to contrib.  More detail on
the changes are in the TODO file.

I have not tested the xid wraparound code as I have to let my AthlonXP
1600 run select 1 in a tight loop for approx. two days in order to
perform the required 500,000,000 xacts.

7b8eb0b4f1 Attached is a fairly sizeable update to contrib/dblink. I'd love to get
review/feedback if anyone is interested and can spend the time. But I'd
also love to get this committed and address changes as incremental
patches ;-), so if there are no objections, please apply.

Below I'll give a synopsis of the changes. More detailed descriptions
are now in a new doc directory under contrib/dblink. There is also a new

dblink.test.sql file which will give a pretty good overview of the
functions and their use.

41f862ba87 As mentioned above, here is my contrib/tablefunc patch. It includes
three functions which exercise the tablefunc API.

show_all_settings()
   - returns the same information as SHOW ALL, but as a query result

normal_rand(int numvals, float8 mean, float8 stddev, int seed)
   - returns a set of normally distributed float8 values
   - This routine implements Algorithm P (Polar method for normal
     deviates) from Knuth's _The_Art_of_Computer_Programming_, Volume 2,
     3rd ed., pages 122-126. Knuth cites his source as "The polar
     method", G. E. P. Box, M. E. Muller, and G. Marsaglia,
     _Annals_Math,_Stat._ 29 (1958), 610-611.

crosstabN(text sql)
   - returns a set of row_name plus N category value columns
   - crosstab2(), crosstab3(), and crosstab4() are defined for you,
     but you can create additional crosstab functions per directions
     in the README.

ad0787b2bd I've written on like that a while ago:
http://webmail.postgresql.org/~petere/dbsize.html

The tarball can be rolled into contrib -- now that I think of it I don't
know why I never did that.

Never imagined this would have anything to do with that TODO item,
though.
I figured oid2name accomplished that.

cff23429d6 I noticed that the contrib Makefiles were reorganized.
Converted pgcrypto one too.

* Changed default randomness source to libc random()
  That way pgcrypto does not have any external dependencies
  and should work everywhere.
* Re-enabled pgcrypto build in contrib/makefile
* contrib/README update - there is more stuff than
  only 'hash functions'
* Noted the libc random fact in README.pgcrypto

cdd02cdf00 Sorry - I should have gotten to this sooner. Here's a patch which you should
be able to apply against what you just committed. It rolls soundex into
fuzzystrmatch.

Remove soundex/metaphone and merge into fuzzystrmatch.

d8783c512e Per this discussion, here's a patch to implement both levenshtein() and
metaphone() in a contrib. There seem to be a fair number of different
approaches to both of these algorithms. I used the simplest case for
levenshtein which has a cost  of 1 for any character insertion, deletion, or
substitution. For metaphone, I adapted the same code from CPAN that the PHP
folks did.

A couple of questions:
1. Does it make sense to fold the soundex contrib together with this one?

2. I was debating trying to add multibyte support to levenshtein (it would
make no sense at all for metaphone), but a quick search through the contrib
directory found no hits on the word MULTIBYTE. Should worry about adding
multibyte support to levenshtein()?

8ace5114dc This directory contains a module that implements the "Metaphone" code as
a PostgreSQL user-defined function.  The Metaphone system is a method of
matching similar sounding names (or any words) to the same code.

Metaphone was invented by Lawrence Philips as an improvement to the popular
name-hashing routine, Soundex.

This metaphone code is from Michael Kuhn, and is detailed at
   http://aspell.sourceforge.net/metaphone/metaphone-kuhn.txt

program to do that.
