 A small note about 'WW' in to_char/timestamp(), in 7.0 is a small bug
in this code (already discussed) and it is based on standard weeks, but in
7.1 it will *different* and based on weeks like Oracle (already in CVS).

Oracle: first week start JAN-1 and all next weeks start in same day. For
example if first day of year is friday, all weeks start in friday.

ISO-week: week that has more than 4 day and start in Sunday.

In future I try implement 'IW' that is ISO-week, but now I work on different
things.

In current 7.0 is probably better for week operations use
date_part('week', TIMESTAMP) than to_char().
