Tom Lane 390cf3209b Refrain from canonicalizing a client_encoding setting of "UNICODE".
While "UTF8" is the correct name for this encoding, existing JDBC drivers
expect that if they send "UNICODE" it will read back the same way; they
fail with an opaque "Protocol error" complaint if not.  This will be fixed
in the 9.1 drivers, but until older drivers are no longer in use in the
wild, we'd better leave "UNICODE" alone.  Continue to canonicalize all
other inputs.  Per report from Steve Singer and subsequent discussion.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
