use it, as per my proposal of yesterday. This gives us a means of determining the zone offset to impute to an unlabeled timestamp that is both efficient and reliable, unlike all our previous tries involving mktime() and localtime(). The behavior for invalid or ambiguous times at a DST transition is fixed to be really and truly "assume standard time", fixing a bug that has come and gone repeatedly but was back again in 7.4. (There is some ongoing discussion about whether we should raise an error instead, but for the moment I'll make it do what it was previously intended to do.) |

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. The JDBC, ODBC, C++, Python, and Tcl interfaces have been moved to the PostgreSQL Projects Web Site at http://gborg.postgresql.org for separate maintenance. A Perl DBI/DBD driver is available from CPAN. 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 ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
