Thank you. I want to point out that the Oracle JDBC drivers do not seem
to support javax.sql yet. Nice to see Postgresql getting ahead of the
curve :-)

PM: It is good to see were ahead of them...

Are there any plans to support X/Open error code reporting? Rather than
just reporting the message, the X/Open error code will be reported
allowing the application to determine from the SQLException what went
wrong. This allows the application to determine duplicate keys, aborted
transactions, etc.

PM: It should be relatively easy. All of our SQLException's are now
keyworded to allow the internationalization of the messages, so in
theory we can add the code by way of a lookup on that keyword.

Which type of cursors will be supported?

PM: Not sure yet. I'm currently about 3 days behind (from the point
where I wanted to be  by today).
