+ 1,000,000 from me. ;-)

Frankly, BRIN, UPSERT and a couple other things are plenty for a
Postgres release. Other SQL databases would be thrilled to have that
much ... can you name 3 major advances in the last MySQL release?

And given that I've seen nothing about jquery/VODKA since pgCon, I'm
expecting them for 9.6/whatever, not 9.5. There's a whole longish
syntax discussion we haven't even started yet, let alone actual
technical review.
