(Mostly) like a clockwork: A new year, a new release. And like every year before we find a beautiful collection of new stuff to play with.
Even better this time around: It's looking as if the next release of Ubuntu will get 9.1 packaged which spares me from manually packaging or using a PPA this time around.
The new features each release introduces are too sweet to skip just because a distribution is lagging. And ever since I began using PostgreSQL at the 7.1 days I have _never_ experienced a bug that really affected me. No byte of data has ever been lost, no single time did it crash on me due to circumstances beyond my control (cough free disk space cough).
Congratulations to everybody responsible for yet another awesome release!

Yes. I am a fanboy. Sorry.
