Does PHP need any specific support for v8? I have EMX ports of the PostgreSQL v7.4.5 client code, so that I can build PostgreSQL interfaces for the Python port. I don't have enough time to build versions for the Pg8 betas & RCs so have been waiting for the final release before doing anything (but first I need to get Python 2.4 binaries out the door...) I don't expect libpq to have changed much from the 7.4 versions (which did have wire protocol changes from 7.3, but are backward compatible). AFAIK, the 8.x servers will accept connections from 7.[34] clients, though perhaps with some capability restrictions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew I MacIntyre "These thoughts are mine alone..."

Great! Will it include the change for stack size?
