Re: Has anyone reviewed the Packt Publishing Postgresql books?

My only criticisms are

1. their contents are largely a rehash, if not a reprint, of what you find
on postgresql.org/docs, blog or mailing list archive and
2. the PostgreSQL hacker community is so active of late adding incredibly
valuable features that anything you find in print will be obsolete by the
next September when a new release is out.

I don't mean to bash any of the authors. The above are problems common to
any printed or ebook publication on open source technologies.

Just my $0.02.
