+     <para>
+      Functions used in index expressions and partial-index
+      predicates are evaluated whenever a new table entry is made.  It has
+      long been understood that this poses a risk of trojan-horse code
+      execution if one modifies a table owned by an untrustworthy user.
+      (Note that triggers, defaults, check constraints, etc. pose the
+      same type of risk.)  But functions in indexes pose extra danger
+      because they will be executed by routine maintenance operations
+      such as <command>VACUUM FULL</>, which are commonly performed
+      automatically under a superuser account.  For example, a nefarious user
+      can execute code with superuser privileges by setting up a
+      trojan-horse index definition and waiting for the next routine vacuum.
+      The fix arranges for standard maintenance operations
+      (including <command>VACUUM</>, <command>ANALYZE</>, <command>REINDEX</>,
+      and <command>CLUSTER</>) to execute as the table owner rather than
+      the calling user, using the same privilege-switching mechanism already
+      used for <literal>SECURITY DEFINER</> functions.  To prevent bypassing
+      this security measure, execution of <command>SET SESSION
+      AUTHORIZATION</> and <command>SET ROLE</> is now forbidden within a
+      <literal>SECURITY DEFINER</> context.  (CVE-2007-6600)

-      Add function <function>PQfreemem</function> for freeing memory on
-      Windows, suggested for <command>NOTIFY</command> (Bruce)
-     </para>
-     <para>
-      Windows requires that memory allocated in a library be freed by
-      a function in the same library, hence
-      <function>free()</function> doesn't work for freeing memory
-      allocated by libpq. <function>PQfreemem</function> is the proper
-      way to free libpq memory, especially on Windows, and is
-      recommended for other platforms as well.

-     <para>Document service capability, and add sample file (Bruce)</para>
      <para>
-      This allows clients to look up connection information in a
-      central file on the client machine.
+      Functions used in index expressions and partial-index
+      predicates are evaluated whenever a new table entry is made.  It has
+      long been understood that this poses a risk of trojan-horse code
+      execution if one modifies a table owned by an untrustworthy user.
+      (Note that triggers, defaults, check constraints, etc. pose the
+      same type of risk.)  But functions in indexes pose extra danger
+      because they will be executed by routine maintenance operations
+      such as <command>VACUUM FULL</>, which are commonly performed
+      automatically under a superuser account.  For example, a nefarious user
+      can execute code with superuser privileges by setting up a
+      trojan-horse index definition and waiting for the next routine vacuum.
+      The fix arranges for standard maintenance operations
+      (including <command>VACUUM</>, <command>ANALYZE</>, <command>REINDEX</>,
+      and <command>CLUSTER</>) to execute as the table owner rather than
+      the calling user, using the same privilege-switching mechanism already
+      used for <literal>SECURITY DEFINER</> functions.  To prevent bypassing
+      this security measure, execution of <command>SET SESSION
+      AUTHORIZATION</> and <command>SET ROLE</> is now forbidden within a
+      <literal>SECURITY DEFINER</> context.  (CVE-2007-6600)

-     The security problem is that the built-in character set encoding

 To maintain database consistency in case of an operating system crash,
 previous releases of <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> have forced
 all data modifications to disk before each transaction commit.  With
 WAL, only one log file must be flushed to disk, greatly improving
 performance.  If you have been using -F in previous releases to
 disable disk flushes, you might want to consider discontinuing its use.

+       MVCC uses the natural multiversion nature of

+       continue reading consistent data during writer activity.
+       Writers continue to use the compact pg_log transaction system.
+       This is all performed without having to allocate a lock for
+       every row like traditional database systems.  So, basically,

-        MVCC uses the natural multiversion nature of
-        <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> to allow readers to
-        continue reading consistent data during writer activity.
-        Writers continue to use the compact pg_log transaction system.
-        This is all performed without having to allocate a lock for
-        every row like traditional database systems.  So, basically,
-        we no longer are restricted by simple table-level locking; we
-        have something better than row-level locking.

-    First, we now have subselects.  Now that we have them, I would like to
-    mention that without subselects, SQL is a very limited language.
-    Subselects are a major feature, and you should review your code for
-    places where subselects provide a better solution for your queries.  I
-    think you will find that there are more uses for subselects than you might
-    think.  Vadim has put us on the big SQL map with subselects, and fully
-    functional ones too.  The only thing you cannot do with subselects is to
-    use them in the target list.
-   </para>
-   <para>
-    Second, 6.3 uses Unix domain sockets rather than TCP/IP by default.  To
-    enable connections from other machines, you have to use the new
-    postmaster -i option, and of course edit <filename>pg_hba.conf</filename>.  Also, for this
-    reason, the format of <filename>pg_hba.conf</filename> has changed.
-   </para>
-   <para>
-    Third, <type>char()</type> fields will now allow faster access than <type>varchar()</type> or
-    <type>text</type>. Specifically, the <type>text</> and <type>varchar()</type> have a penalty for access to
-    any columns after the first column of this type.  <type>char()</type> used to also
-    have this access penalty, but it no longer does.  This might suggest that
-    you redesign some of your tables, especially if you have short character
-    columns that you have defined as <type>varchar()</type> or <type>text</type>.  This and other
-    changes make 6.3 even faster than earlier releases.
-   </para>
-   <para>
-    We now have passwords definable independent of any Unix file.  There are
-    new SQL USER commands.
-    See the <citetitle>Administrator's Guide</citetitle> for more
-    information.  There is a new table, pg_shadow, which is used to store
-    user information and user passwords, and it by default only SELECT-able
-    by the <systemitem>postgres</systemitem> super-user.  pg_user is now a view of pg_shadow, and is
-    SELECT-able by PUBLIC.  You should keep using pg_user in your
-    application without changes.
-   </para>
-   <para>
-    User-created tables now no longer have SELECT privilege to PUBLIC by
-    default.  This was done because the ANSI standard requires it.  You can
-    of course GRANT any privileges you want after the table is created.
-    System tables continue to be SELECT-able by PUBLIC.
-   </para>
-   <para>
-    We also have real deadlock detection code.  No more sixty-second
-    timeouts.  And the new locking code implements a <acronym>FIFO</acronym> better, so there
-    should be less resource starvation during heavy use.
-   </para>
-   <para>
-    Many complaints have been made about inadequate documentation in previous
-    releases.  Thomas has put much effort into many new manuals for this
-    release.  Check out the doc/ directory.
-   </para>
-   <para>
-    For performance reasons, time travel is gone, but can be implemented
-    using triggers (see <filename>pgsql/contrib/spi/README</filename>).  Please check out the new
-    \d command for types, operators, etc.  Also, views have their own
-    privileges now, not based on the underlying tables, so privileges on

-    This is the first release that really required an explanation for
