I have 2 questions for 6.5.1.

1. Currently we couldn't create an index on numeric type.   Is it difficult to add numeric_ops ? 

2. I love Oracle TRUNCATE statement.   Marcus Mascari [mascarim@yahoo.com] has already implemented   this
feature,thoughI haven't seen his implementation yet.   If his implementation is right,could this new feature be added
to   6.5.1 ?
