Quick patch to mention CITEXT in the parts of the FAQ that discuss
case-insensitive comparisons.

I think it is too early to mention /contrib/citext in the FAQ because
8.4 is not released yet.

Oh, is the FAQ on the site built from CVS tip? Is there not a branch
for 8.3 from which it's built?

There are FAQ's in each branch, but the one that is put on the web site
is from CVS HEAD.

Oh. That seems kind of odd…can you hang onto the patch until 8.4 is
released, then? This must happen all the time, no?

too.

Just a reminder, Bruce, to add the CITEXT bit to the FAQ when 8.4 is
released. Is that supposed to be today?

Thanks,
