It's not clear to me how an average user would get from the press release or release notes to upgrading their installation to use SCRAM-based authentication and passwords. A little bit more guidance somewhere would be helpful. The patch that Heikki posted seemed reasonable to me as a starting point, but there probably needs to be more "how" information somewhere. -- Peter Eisentraut http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
