Re: Hypothetical Indexes

Hello Josh,

I will take a look at pgFoundry and register a new project for index
selection. I will also look for other projects there that we may help
somehow. About the tutorial, I will send you the presentation we used
to generate the web pages so that you can see it with OpenOffice. ;)

Thanks for your feedback,

Marcos.
