when can we get better partitioning?

hi<br />i was really more than happy when i saw table partitioning in release info for 8.1.<br />then i tried to use
it,and hit some serious problem (described on pgsql-general).<br />basically the question is - is anybody at the moment
workingon improving partitioning capabilities? like improving queries to partitioned tables with "ORDER BY" and "LIMIT"
statements?<br />if yes, when can we start thinking about release with this functionality?<br /><br />i, my own, do not
haveenough c knowledge to do it by myself, yet i would *really* like to have this feature improved, as it would save me
andmy coworkers a lot of work and hassle that we face right now with rewriting queries to ask directly partitions
insteadof master table, that got partitioned. <br /><br />best regards,<br /><br />depesz<br /><br />
