I agree. I'm in the process of reformulating this proposal from the syntax, catalog and DDL -centric perspective and will re-incorporate multi-level partitioning notion into it. It was a mistake to drop it.
Drop it?? I think he means "in this initial patch", right Amit L ?
I don't really understand why parallel query was pursued in small pieces, but partitioning needs to happen all in one huge patch. Wishing too many things is going to slow down this feature.
